Growing Rockmelon, also Canteloupe

View the Rockmelon page

18 Aug 12 Patri (Australia - sub-tropical climate)
I started rockmelons from seed in April and May. I transplanted them into my garden bed and none of them has given me any fruit so far!! Just one of the vines (out of 6) is growing one rockmelon eventually... Are they difficult to get pollinated?? I've pollinated them myself because I dont trust bees so much ( I dont get many, that's what I mean) but I haven't been very successful...nanyone with the same problem?
