Wow, I’m going to start the sugar baby watermelons!!! When did you start
them from seed?
I planted my first veggie garden this year and grew tomatoes and sugar baby
watermelons in pots – my watermelons are in an 18 gallon tote. My tomatoes
haven’t produced much and my watermelons are palm sized and don’t seem to
want to get bigger than that. I have zucchini and cucumbers in my garden
and I’ve only gotten about 3 zucchini’s from it and out of 4 cucumber
plants I only have one tiny cucumber growing and it’s now August. The
plants themselves are growing like crazy, just not producing veggies.
Plenty of water, sun and plant food so not sure where it went wrong. Oh
well, there’s always next year!
Wow this was a great experiment. I had been thinking of trying the same
thing since I live in an apartment complex. We can grow whatever we want as
long as it in a pot.
