Title: Melons
Post by: gardenqueen on June 05, 2007, 15:01:25
I am growing melons for the first time in my greenhouse. They are in 12 inch clay pots. Any tips on growing, feeding, atmosphere etc ? They are called "No Name"!

I'm no melon expert, but I has success last year growing them outdoors. I gave them some cords to climb up. Once the fruit set I pinched out the majority to leave just a few on each vine. The fruit I supported in net bags.

To be honest I just treated them like cucumbers.
