Dad has a very healthy looking rockmelon in a raised bed...gave the vine two buckets yesterday of diluted power feed...the flowers now look brighter an there are a lot of them...but know sight of any fruit forming yet???also noticed today a few leaves with a greyish looking mould on some of the leaves...hasn't been a lot of sunlight the last couple of days! Dad has the vine held by a wire fence ...stopping his dog from jumping in there????
