Got'ny advice for a newbie watermelon grower?


I owe it all to my producer and choreographer ..... no no

Let me start again. I owe it all to my producers: to Jabba, Bobby,
Trouble, Shannon, Tia, Chatty, Big Ted, Wildeyes, Hugo and Dektop
Magic. They did all the hard work. I feel so proud and humble. I
just followed in their footsteps.

With a barrow.

ROFL! That's a load of old... and you know it!


Is it likely to pick up my dunny and cart it away????


No for that you need pumpkins.

Well the pumpkins were planted the week after the melons and already
they're having an unnatural relationship in the middle of the bed! I
can't untwine them: they've knotted themselves together in what looks
like a Turk's Head Knot! My dunny is a heritage item, you know: it has
wall-to-wall air-conditioning and a determined list to the left. It's
been host to numerous blue-tongues, black snakes and Miss Redbacks
over the years. In fact, we sort of hoped the pumpkin might hold it
together for a few years longer before we'll need to replace it. I
hate to destroy the ... je ne sais quoi? ... of an heritage building.
Y'know?

I really envy you all that horse poo. Hope you've been giving the lads
the odd apple or carrot by way of thanks?

I am just wondering if the dunny is on a hillside. You may be growing
them chinese style.

From the wikipedia site on water melons
The citrulline which exists in watermelon (especially in the rind)
is a known stimulator of nitric oxide. Nitric oxide is thought to
relax and expand blood vessels, much like the erectile dysfunction
drug Viagra, and may even increase libido.[32]
Apparently the rind is edible...

LOL! That's downright subversive, that is!
Yep and that explains the black non american natives sexual prowess
perhaps...
And may stop them being stereo typed feeding on large amounts of water
melon.

My husband doesn't need to know this small factoid about watermelons
and I will be Vigilant that he doesn't eat too much of the stuff. For
his own well-being, you understand... ;-

I would have thought you would have been thinking about it for yourself
perhaps.
Nothing exceeds excess....
FWIW, me dear old Mum ate watermelon rind when she was a tot and
nearly died of ulcerative colitis caused, as the doctors said, by the
'chemicals' in the rind.
Now you're putting people of, after me encouraging them to be fruitful.
Why do some people always spoil a good thing... (grinning from ear to
ear while desperately waiting for the water melons in his own patch to
ripen)
One inch of rain so far....11 55. good night....

Why? Its not a sensitive issue. Except for some.
Proof of science relies on concensus by scientists
That appears to have been ignored.
Then there's others who dogmatically think that all science can be
incapable of wrong.
That has often been disproved.
I've got questions, and as I said b4 I'm not afraid to ask them.
If the answers don't fit, theyre using the wrong method..
Especially as there can be no guarantee on the outcome thats going to
benefits us in a lifetime, based on theories.
Which were as Al gore said were the ramblings of a senile old man, when
the old man said he may be mistaken and not to rush into things....

grin Including or excluding you, David .....?

Overall, dunno. There are at least a couple more that have been used on
this ng, but I didn't make a record and can't remember offhand the nics
that appeared. I'm afraid that I am not interested enough to do other
than cursory checks for the obvious when my curiosity is piqued. People
do what they want; not for me to question - unless it impacts on me

Too many newsgroups and ways of hiding ID. Guess we will need to drive
by his/her place on washing day and check to see what's on the line ;-P

Keep smiling

You dont have to do this. (Asio may have to to trust and verify). I'll
save you the trouble.....
At last count 5 in the wash, and some 15 in my drawer, and a few odd
ones. A few holy ones for church. A few under the washing machine (or
lost in it) probably matching the odd ones. All boring colours so I dont
offend the flat earth people.
I just hope you dont wanta know about my underwear. Thats going a bit far.
Why do you ask O nosey one?
Mind you I do wear different hats on different days....I cant tell how
many or what type.

Got'ny advice for a newbie watermelon grower?

I had no *idea* they grew this big! Mine's gone 10m in one direction and
15m in the other and it's growing what seems to be billions of
watermelons! We've already culled quite a few of them, but you can
almost detect the vine growing. Each morning, it seems to have added
another couple of feet in every direction!

Is it likely to pick up my dunny and cart it away????

PS. The melons are *gorgeous*: sweet and juicy as can be.

Sugar baby (Yates) next time. They are smaller and fit in the
fridge.Well at the moment. They seem to have stalled at around 5 inches
they should grow to 8.
Anyone have any ideas to restart them growing?
