    I live where those don’t grow at all. I kinda thought they grew on a tree, though I mean, melon. I just never gave it any thought. Very cool!

  2. Over time, the sugars in the fruit break down, so when you pick it from your garden, it is at peak freshness.

  3. I’ve tried a few times with short season cantaloupe and failed miserably. But, I have a few watermelons growing! My brother used to grow cantaloupes and he raved on how sweet they tasted.

  4. So I hoped. In my experience, the melons I grew were almost completely tasteless, just like the Storebought ones. I was also very disappointed that each plant produced exactly one fruit before dying.
