Watermelon Saga Ends

Welcome friends, well today my watermelon gardening came to a tasty end.  This watermelon picture was taken on August 8th.

Today that same watermelon and the other one was picked,  I tried to show the same cup to give you an idea of how it has grown.

Same cup, fuzzy picture (sorry bout that) this is 2 watermelons.  Since I had no idea how to tell when them were ripe, I just decided on  today.  When I cut into them they both sorta popped, so I think they were perfectly ripe. They were very juicy and I was told they were very sweet.  I am proud of my watermelon.

Everyone got in on the fruits of our labor!  Hamlet enjoys watermelon rind so much, Yam Yam not so much.  Hamlet is on a diet so this was an extra special treat.

Thank you for stopping by, I think I will try watermelons again next year.  I am getting ready to do my fall planting.  Are you planning on anything for fall?

Watermelon Tragedy

Welcome to my watermelon update.  Remember this little guy about 3 weeks ago?

This is him this morning.  Bummer.  I guess the terrible heat did it.  This is my first watermelon experience so I don't know what caused it.  Well I have 2 more so I will keep you updated.

I read every comment and enjoy them so much!

My first Watermelon

Welcome friends, I have to share my very first watermelons.  I have never grown watermelons before.  They are so tiny.  I mean I know they don't start out giant but aren't they just too cute?  My summer cold has turned into bronchitis so I will leave you with a couple of my new watermelons~

I love your comments, are you growing anything fun?
