Bigred Posted February 15, 2014 (edited) Was wondering if anybody out there would be interested in a watermelon comp . Not to sure of the start dates but with the success of the pumpkin comp maybe a melon comp would be cool. Edited February 16, 2014 by Bigred 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Schrodinger's Khat Posted February 16, 2014 (edited) Spring sounds about right I think.. These sound alright: CAROLINA CROSS: This is the largest watermelon variety. All watermelon world records over the past thirty-five years have been set using this variety. This variety just grows and grows. It continues to grow even after ripening. There are noticeable variations within the variety such as length, width, seed color, rind contour, and growth rate. All of the Carolina Cross variations sold by Giant Watermelons are capable of growing watermelons in excess of two hundred pounds each. Buyers can choose seeds from individual watermelons listed by weight or they can choose from pooled seeds of young seed melons. The advantage of using the young random seeds is better germination. A first time grower of this variety would be wise to read the growing instructions before planting. http://www.giantwatermelons.com/seedlines.php or http://www.seedman.com/watermelon.htm They even sell giant rockmelon seeds Edited February 16, 2014 by Schrodinger's Khat 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
