The smell
"Snag" wrote in message ... of freshly picked cantalope is wafting throughout my house . When I went out to check the garden early this morning , I could smell the aroma when I was still several feet away . Touched the stem and it fell off the fruit , so it's sittin' on my kitchen counter right now . I picked one the other day , but got it just a tiny bit too early and it wasn't as sweet as I like - the neighbor down the street got that one . Now if this steenkin' heat wave would break , maybe my 'maters would start setting fruit again . Hasn't been a bumper year for them , but there's still hope ! Got a few on the plants , and some are starting to ripen . Now all I gotta do is beat the bugs to them ! -- Snag Learning keeps you young ! How may lopes? I have 2 hills and about 6 plants and only see 4 softball sized fruit. I've had plenty of pollinators the last month. Zone 6 NY Cheers |
