I have 2 melons growing well in large pots in my greenhouse. They are
clambering rapidly up the supports I made for them and are covered in
lots of yellow flowers. I read in a previous post that there should
only be 2 melons per plant if planted in pots so should I remove some
of these flowers.?
Any advice greatly appreciated.

When I grew them in pots, I intended to to this, but never got round to it.
The flowers fell off leaving the recommended number of melons anyway.

I'd suggest you leave it till the fruit starts to swell - if you seem to
have too many fruits at that point, remove them then.

Make sure you pick them as soon as they are ripe. You can tell by the yummy
melon scent. If you leave them on too long, they go all flavourless (or
the one I left did, anyway).
