Advice on Growing Watermelon?
Comments (1)Lots of good reading here. Linked below are a bunch of previous discussions on how to grow watermelon with lots of tips in them. Since you are growing them in container know that you will have to be especially diligent with watering frequently and deeply and with feeding frequently.

Comments (18)I know it's not a deer. We have an HOA and no way those people would allow a deer to ravage their lawns and live to see another day. :))) But I have to laugh, my husband is city boy through and through. The first time he saw a coyote in our yard, he thought it was a deer. Lol. Not that I'm a country girl...I'm pretty darn citified. The preserve across from us is pretty small and there's a golf course. I've seen gazillions of rabbits and ground squirrels there. It would take much for one or more to migrate up this way. I'm going to put my pots up on our patio table tonight and if there's no damage, I'll agree with rabbit. I'll still going to grub around in the soil though and see if I see anything buggy. Can't believe how fast y'all are at answering! Thank you!!,...See MoreWeekend Journal

Comments (12)Stanofh right there with ya! I would take the cocos and pamper it to the max. I, being a minnesotan, have seen plenty of malnourished majesties inside churches and other places. I saw 10 palms in a church in a outlying suburb that were dry as a desert, with 1 to 3 plants in a pot, they looked like they havent been watered in weeks. On the verge of death i guess, but hey theyre cheap inexpensive sh*tty palms that dont last a month or 2 in a average household. I have 2 and im already up to my neck in ferting them every damn 2 weeks OR LESS, just to keep them clumsy palms green. Watering is no problem for me, its the growers and the big box stores fault for letting R.rivularis dominate the "indoor plants" market when they shouldve been left to there own in Madagascar. I hate the palms that have fronds that point towards the Moon, that shows that the plant was grown in a dark greenhouse too quickly and is very weak and WILL DIE after about a month and a half or less if given water once a month or week and NO fert. When im a senior in a nursing home,i bet that nursing home will have a majesty or 3!but majesties will still be in big box stores i bet ya when i am 66 years of age. (if im still here on this rapidly warming earth). To answer your question, i HAVE NEVER seen a trunking majesty in MN. People snap these up like hot cakes at HD and Lowes which is sad because all they are buying is a buncha problems. I have never seen a majesty in the trash, though thats were the palms that people bought will soon be :)....See Moremurraysmom Zone 6a OH
