Default Melons for container gardening

Anyone grow these in pots?

Tigger
Queen Anne Pocket
Golden Midget

How'd they do? I just bought some golden midget but am willing to try
anything once.

Dunno, but they get very long roots, maybe not a good idea.

I don't know about golden midgets but the melons I grow would run outside a
pot in a couple of weeks. You may be able to get somewhere if they could
run up a trellis or over your balcony.

I use trellises with all my cucurbits. I fold them over the top. Works
really good for cukes.
