I decided to plant some watermelons this year. I did it once before and loved the homegrown melons. I planted them just off my back deck that’s about 18” above ground level. I’ve been out of town a couple weeks and came back to find several vines and a couple softball sized melons growing on the deck! Apparently the vines climbed up onto the deck while I was gone. I’m wondering if I should move the vine and melons back down to the ground. I only have a few days to do it because by Monday they’ll likely be too big to fit between the slats on the deck rails.
I also seem to recall from last time around that you’re supposed to trim the vines back once melons develop. Can anyone enlighten me on this as well?
Thanks, Matt
