And me :)

Had Honeydew Melon for lunch yesterday, supermarket bought, you'd need a double greenhouse to grow one in the frozen uk.

Thank you. I would've given it a trellis, but I haven't had the best luck with them. I'm just going to let it run on the floor. It seems to do best on the ground.

Is that your honeydew vine? It looks strange to me because of the concrete floor. Have you planted a honeydew before in the same place? From what I know, honeydew and cantaloupe prefer the soil or even grass but not cement. But in fairness to the concrete, there is no pest that would eat the fruits. Our recent harvest of cantaloupe in the backyard suffered some holes because of insects that feasted on the skin of the cantaloupe.
