How many melons on each plant cos I've got 70 melon seedlings come up.
how many plants do you have per side? im trying to determine the proper amount of cantaloupe plants per 5 foot panel
I am really thankful that you took the time to show us. So often I hear that it can be done but
, I couldn't picture how.
I started a backyard garden back in 1978, Sacramento, college student years. Smallish land area, had planted the cantaloupe (fortunately) by the rear fence. I used my daughter's diapers to tack the cantaloupe hangers to the fence – worked great! Had no idea what to do, but logic and luck prevailed. Today, 2021, I'm planting in a 5' x 3' raised bed in rural Tulare Co. (now living in the orange & olive groves east of Lindsay, CA) and will make a trellis of 2 x 4 frame w/ furring strip cross bars. Haven't grown cantaloupe since '78, ought to still do fine. Very nice video, and thrift stores for cheap materials is a great idea.
How to support your trilles
Tee double hee! I’ve been using middle school humor for over 50 years!
Hey .. everyone Moniee-Mon, is listening thanks for the info vedios keep doing what'cha do best God bless ya!.
How many seeds did you plant!? Woweeee they produce a lot!!
what is your favorite cantaloupe?? I want to grow some in central florida. where do you live??
Good way to use pantyhose that is needing decluttered and makes a good sling.
do you train and tie them onto the trellis? and how tall do you think i need to make the trellis please?
LOL Bra! Thanks for the idea though!
Do you cut your cantelope and honeydew vines after the druit like you do for watermelons?
I have a question. Can you clip the leaves to show the flowers for pollination and what is a good way to guid the plant up the trellis. Thank you
how many plants is that?
Nice Video, where did you get those scissors?
3:44 i had to stop the video so i could catch my breath. You funny
Great tips. I have cantaloupe volunteers flowering now that grew from the compost column in my keyhole garden. I'll use a sling for sure.
Please share what varieties are working for you. Thanks
I did this today but I only had black pantyhouse. Is that ok?
Red flowers???? Is that your cantaloupe?
Thank you very much . I am growing melons. Very good
If you're growing watermelon on a trellis, what size should you wait for it to get to, before you support it? Is it not a good idea to do this is the fruit is to small?
My bra's wear out so fast I'll start saving them for cantelopes.
Are there any other concerns besides support? I worry about worms, insects, etc. My cantelope plant only has flowers thus far.
Growing cantaloupe and hope I will be using this trick in a couple of months! Than kyou!
I built a trellis using wood to make a frame similar to a folding room divider, and put plastic netting on it. I made hammocks out of the same netting material and it is very strong and allows a lot of air flow.
Curious.. how many of you used bra's to support your melons?
