@@ChicagoGardener thank you I really want to do this to help as many people as I can Community to Community 🙏🏾 every day I wake up to see my babies I get so much joy 😊
Great video with information on melons in containers . Yes the sling idea is ind I’m familiar with as when I was a child the neighbor grew squash on the fence used his wife’s bras . Mom thought it was terrible. Made us laugh and now with you reminded thanks for all your details . Peace Always 🙏
Fantastic video!! Simple, informative, and your voice is so pleasant 😊.....I was hoping someone would show the growth in a grow bag vs raised garden bed so I could compare and you did a perfect job of that. Thanks you for all your help/advice
Very informative video. I may add that I noticed you have flowers growing close by. No doubt that helps attract the bee’s for a much better pollination success rate. Happy Gardening 😊
Great tips! I am starting Sugar Bush Babies inside this year and have been hardening them off over the past week or two to prep them for going outside into my 15 gallon grow bag and tomato cage. I may also use some 3’ bamboo stakes I already own to help out the tomato cage for support. I will use your tips shown in this video to the best of my ability 👊🏻🌻👊🏻
My entire squash garden was wiped out by vine borers. I started getting good at spotting the signs of them being inside and cutting them out and squishing them . It was sad but this year I'm waging war on those darned vine borers. Going to catch them early. Maybe something else will ruin my plants but I refuse to let it be vine borers again!
Someone suggested to me a copper coil next to the plants to keep the killing pests away yet allows the good ones. I haven't tried it but I have used organic Castile soap to spray leaf if necessary. Worked for Cucumber. Tiny amount of Castile and a whole lot of water.
there's video's on here from some "seasoned professionals" that suggest you cut off the watermelon vine a little bit after where the fruit it growing, plus cut off the suckers that grow, so they both stop taking way energy from going to your fruit. That supposedly makes'em sweeter too. I also watched a video where a direct sow melon grew just as fast, possibly faster, than one started inside--that blew my mind. Thanks for your video!!
Thanks for sharing this video! I’m a gardener too and I’m researching all the things I can grow in containers. I’m happy it led me to find you. I’m so happy it did your channel has so much to offer! This is very helpful. Thanks for teaching me something new. I hope we can learn more from each other as we grow our gardens and our channels!
I planted cantaloupe about 35 days ago from seed and they’re only about 3 inches tall but finally getting a 5 th leaf. What am I doing wrong? Thank you
I would check to see if your soil is moist first. If water doesn’t seem to be an issue, look up leaf curl on Google images and see if your plant looks similar.
You’ll probably have a better shape of you lift it. Mine that sit on the deck always have a flat side to them 😆 if I had a lot of pests crawling around my soil in the bed I’d probably lift them all too but haven’t had much issue with that.
I have had more luck direct sowing seeds than starting inside. Can anyone please let me know how to get my seedlings to grow strong if I start indoors. I have tried heat lights, heat mats and they still get to leggy. I am lost
When it comes to grow lights keep it a few inches above your seedlings. When you start them on heat mats; once you see the seedling has pop out take them off immediately.

Hi 👋🏾 I'm a beginner gardener from Corsicana Texas first time planting and gardening so excited to know I have a green thumb 💚💚💚💚
That’s so exciting!!!
@@ChicagoGardener thank you I really want to do this to help as many people as I can Community to Community 🙏🏾 every day I wake up to see my babies I get so much joy 😊
These tips were exactly what I needed to know as a first time melon grower. Thank you for getting straight to the point with your tips!
That makes me so happy to hear!
Impressive for a first time grower! I hope I can do that with mine too!
Let me know how it goes!

Omg that’s so funny 😆

Great tips! I grew mini cantaloupes one year up against the side of my deck and they grew up the lattice. They were delicious!
I'm definitely going to get some vertical supports for them to grow up next year!

They are the worst!! And having a small garden I’m always nervous about some pest wiping out all of my crops.
Put aluminum foil around the vines

Honeydews taste so much better grown at home compared to what you can buy.

I am going to try and grow some cantaloupes in a grow bag. You are my muse.
Good morning my friend great video I support your channel thank you..
Very good. Thank you!
Thank you now I am ready
Hi! What are the dark pink flowers that are interplanted with the melons in the raised beds? They are beautiful! Petunias?
Good information!
Looking Good thanks for sharing 👍🏻

Awesome video!
Thank you!
Thank you!
thanks for sharing tips..got an idea...
Thanks, this video is really useful!
Thank you! I’m glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much! My leaves are curling up. Any suggestion?
I would check to see if your soil is moist first. If water doesn’t seem to be an issue, look up leaf curl on Google images and see if your plant looks similar.
great vid
Do your grow bags have drain holes? Are they needed for flower or vegetable gardening?
The material of the grow bags is very porous so you won't need a drain hole as you would have on a regular pot!
Thought you didn’t grow them so close. Especially cantaloupe & watermelon??
How many cantaloupe plants in a 1\2 whiskey barrel? Thnx
Great video. Is it beneficial for the melon to stay lifted from the ground? I'm learning how to grow in containers.
You’ll probably have a better shape of you lift it. Mine that sit on the deck always have a flat side to them 😆 if I had a lot of pests crawling around my soil in the bed I’d probably lift them all too but haven’t had much issue with that.
Watermelons can you start in a 14 gallon container?
Please do a video on how you water your plants?
That will be coming next week! Thank you for the idea.
❤
My cantaloupe leaves are turning brown :’( Idk if its cuz of the sun ? It’s 95 here in Southern California.
Look carefully for small insects and make sure you are providing enough water.
@@halibaitor yeah it was definitely the insects ! And yes I was watering really well! I was also growing them in grow bags
Where do you buy your grow bags
Mostly from Amazon, but I also have some from bootstrap farmer!
I have had more luck direct sowing seeds than starting inside. Can anyone please let me know how to get my seedlings to grow strong if I start indoors. I have tried heat lights, heat mats and they still get to leggy. I am lost
How far away are your lights from your seedlings? Some of mine got leggy last year bc the grow light was too far from the plants.
When it comes to grow lights keep it a few inches above your seedlings. When you start them on heat mats; once you see the seedling has pop out take them off immediately.
They're getting leggy due to lack of sunlight/uv.
You were absolutely beautiful
If you're in Florida call me. I have a container garden I want to show you. I live near Orlando and Daytona.
Smile a little 😁
Watch out for flies as they can destroy the whole harvest. You must put out fly traps from the outset.
you are so beautiful...
but your melon n watermelon condition is not goog enough...
