Mr. Toad is back.
Garden work is happening slowly. The past two years my vining plants all got mildew and died. They produced a little even so, but I'd like to avoid that of course.
Mildew avoidance attempt #1- I've put a ban on overhead watering.
Mildew avoidance attempt#2- plant at least one watermelon far away from the former mildew area.
The internet had mixed reviews of whether the mildew will remain on the trellis, so I'm taking a chance that it'll be okay to plant vines there again.
Cantaloupe experiment - three varieties is more than I want, but I don't know which I'll like better. So this year I'll plant three and do a taste test.
Gotta take careful notes when working with different varieties!
