How has the recent copious amounts of rainfall in Minnesota affected the watermelons growing there?

Is that you CH? I love the name.

The rain is an issue and pretty much ended my growing. But then again, it's time to be done. The rain washed a lot of soil out of my slanted garden, but the plant vines did great to hold a lot of it in.

Considering the carnage around us, I think I survived well.

Sorry, not her. A little more literal than that. I guess you could call me your first strain.

Has it at least been warm even though it has not been raining?

I can't say that I am getting any growth at this point. I still have vines, and where there's vines there is hope. As for rain, I can safely say we have had enough.

Now if I can just get Kenny's cage dried out. I think my pig is tired of standing in muck.
