I'm also skeptical about the cantaloupe. I never hear of people growing it in their home gardens and maybe there's a reason for that......<BR/><BR/>Heather - It is quite satisfying to use things from our own garden. At this point I don't know that the yield is anywhere close to balancing out the effort, but it's still fun. :)Alyshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06914870543398140819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11447537.post-35065364500818699662008-07-18T14:14:00.000-04:002008-07-18T14:14:00.000-04:00Wow!!

It must be wonderful to cook with what you have cultivated yourself.<BR/><BR/>-Heather (Angelsfan)Heather Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10534311079809249389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11447537.post-2524134669895327682008-07-17T21:36:00.000-04:002008-07-17T21:36:00.000-04:00I'm so glad your tomatoes recovered.

I also left my strawberry and lettuce plants out as my offering to them, haha. Just leave my basil and tomatoes alone! (And the lime tree--you know I would freak if they touched that).<BR/><BR/>I tried to grow watermelon in State College and found it to be a mixed bag. I was like you, VERY excited--we went out and marked the fruit almost every day. But something got them then at the very end--cannot remember if it was frost or disease. I hope yours do better.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08817330846936634317noreply@blogger.com
