Sadly, it's going to be a short post this week. We've got a good portion of the growing units out-of-commission, so we don't have all that much to report. However, we do have some good news to report... Our own Max Parker has returned from the recent Maximum Yield expo. We'll be posting a full write-up in next week's post. We're still gathering our material.
However, we do have some news from the garden this week... I'm the first one to admit that I have no experience with growing melon; so this is all new to me. We're growing a cantaloupe at the moment, and it's really growing. It's growing about 9" each and every day. I never knew that cantaloupe was a climbing vine... Shows what I know. Take a look at this fellow climbing the light stand:

I'm not sure how far it's going to go... We're training it along the light stand, and then across some support twine. Here's a shot from a different angle:

As you can see from last week, it's gotten to be a very big plant in a hurry. Updates to follow. I expect that next week should be pretty busy.
