RE: My garden june update || Melon garden behind the house

in HiveGarden4 months ago

I've never had any luck growing melons of any type, yours look spectacular. Like yourself, I also enjoy the pure beauty of the plants and flowers each different veggie produces.
We grow only for ourselves and I can only imagine the efforts that it takes to grow for others like farmers do.
Nice pictures, everything looks nice and healthy.

Thanks very much,, I think you need to try and keep trying until you get fresh and sweet melons from your own garden.

I need to do a little more investigating, it's all about the soil and maybe there's some kind of deficiency.

I also think like that, but if you want to plant the traditional way, then you can use leaf litter and some coconut fiber, this will make the soil fertile and suitable for melon plants, thank you for reading my post

I've heard a lot of good things about coconut fiber.

but you have to remove all the acid from the coir before using it, you can soak the coir for one week, that way the acid will disappear in the coir 🙏

Very interesting, like most things you had better know what you're doing before you jump in.

I really be happy being able to share my experiences with you, I hope you always have a nice day ☺️

Being that I'm now retired, every day is a nice day!
