My first two cantaloupe fell of the vine when ripe. They tasted great. This watermelon is about 5 feet up. I’m worried it will break if it falls off. Any ideas on what to do?

Maybe nail or tie some pantyhose or stockings to the fence to make a cradle for it?
I planted 2 random watermelons in a small back corner mulchbed this year and forgot about them for awhile. I forgot to build any supports. They are now completely taking over the bed growing all over the ground and climbing up some bushes and plants i have near them which is fine and i see a few small watermelons forming but not sure if they will mature or not. Im new to this. Yours look fantastic!

Build a wood tower something for it to sit on
It needs a little hammock
