Oh cool! If I had a large area that had no grass I would try using the big bags of soil and just dropping in watermelon seeds - I’ve seen several videos of using the cut open bags instead of ground to plant. However the vines would cover areas here that would have to be mowed so it isn’t feasible

Maybe I will try that one. Sounds like it would cut down on weeding. Do deer like watermelon vines? (Found out the hard way that they love sweet potato vines.)

Hmmm, I’m going to run over to Walmart tomorrow and get some veggie & flower Mirecle Gro and put in a couple of watermellon and canteloupe seeds and put my grids over them to climb. Thanks for the idea. I’m all for elevated growing.

Hubby had some meetings this past week and weekends. He wanted me to be there with him. I took my book of worms. As one of the speakers walked by us, he stopped looked at me and said “that book is holding your attention, what is the name, I may want to read it too”. In answered “Worms”.
