Gary, So you're saying I shouldn't let more than two melons grow on each vine? Now is that 'plant' or 'vine'
because I let it branch out all over the place and it was setting little melons but they took a long time to ripen. So long that I picked them early.

Jungseed, Don't move vines when cultivating?

Can you guys tell me more?

I'm new to melon growing due to lack of space but the past two years, I've tried it with so-so results.

My Ambrosia melons did o.k., but not good. Had more last year.

My watermelons sucked mud! I did move the vines a few times because I had them growing in Pine Straw beds and wanted to freshen them up. Was that a mistake too?

Trying a Moon and Stars variety this year I got in a trade. I'm looking foward to getting it right.

Greg
