Do y’all think I should kill the smaller one so the other two could actually grow bigger? Or would it not make a difference?

@salyforlife I don’t have a clue. But I’m jealous. I can’t get them to grow in my climate. About the time I got a flower they shriveled up and died. I wonder if 3 medium melons would be better than one big one. Something to ponder on. Good luck with what you choose. Maybe ask YouTube or Google. 🍀🍀

@tkept it’s actually funny because NOTHING else I planted grew right. I’m so proud of these melons, another group told me to kill one, I would rather have 3 ones that will ripe and be edible. Like I don’t want to waste one for no reason, I will def do more research!

Can you bury vine in between fruit. I would let them go. Pick as soon as it ripens to allow other to mature.

@high they’re all on their own vine. I know In the picture they look like they’re on the same one.

Ooo good. After fruit, cut vine. Do not allow it to keep vining. It will push growth into fruit.
