Well here's hoping they turn out super sweet!
I have three sets of Sarah's Choice F3 planted. One set of three with rubber mulch over them growing up a fence. A second set of four in a raised row on the ground. And a third set of something like twelve growing up a trellis that gets well watered pretty much every evening. There are some melons set at each but I am terrible at deciding when to harvest.
So far I've only noted two vines dying from the striped cucumber beetles, and I cut them way back ahead of the wilt and maybe saved the rest of the plants.
I haven't thought about cutting water this year, nature is doing enough of that.
