Giant Watermelon – Day 11

Three of the five seeds have sprouted. Hopefully the other two will cooperate and also show up for the party.

Now I need to start thinking about transplanting and protecting from each and all potential hazards. Things like dogs, snails, slugs, skunks, birds, bugs, jealous gardeners. Hmm… maybe I should build a machine gun tower in the corner. Do I need an electric fence or just a razor fence? So many variables to deal with. I didn’t know growing gigantic watermelons was going to be so complex.

It’s going to be great watching these puppies grow and produce 200 lb watermelon. What do you do with a 200 lb watermelon?
