Watermelon planting May 23rd 2009 001

Tips, Tricks

1. please how much temperature when I use mulch plastic
2. how we get it
3. I was always told that watermelon mixes together when mixing different varieties.
4. they not hard to get going i got 5 planter and i had some seeds i thought was bad because roatch ate alot of the seeds i had save and so i decide todo is just put thought them on the gornd i barred them and i got about 50 watermelon plant now
5. stop saying pumpkin! hahaha
6. We have to wait due to frost concerns, and we need the fruit by August if possible, once past labor day you can't give them away.
7. Sorry for delay, we are in North East Ohio. You Tube comments section is very frustrating to me sometimes. I don't have lots of time to check this and lots of time when I go to post it gives me error messages. Take care.
8. We have not had a great deal of luck with that. Glad you are successful!
9. My father in law is 76 years old and try's to do to much, point well taken!
10. the guy that made the rows needs glasses!!!!!!!!!!!
11. your too small plants are not grafted even... but 23rd may is not late 
12. We are in Northeast Ohio, that is right around frost free date on average. Thanks on the video like too!
13. pretty good video. May 23rd is pretty late to be planting watermelon where i'm from. where is Maize valley located? Definatly agree with you on sangria being about the best you can get.
14. You might want to cover up that license plate.
15. @hondadrift The soil nutrition program you talked about can be beneficial but i would still suggest taking samples every year to make sure you are depriving your plants of needed nutrients. 
16. Looks like you guys have a fun operation out there! Just a tip that will drastically increase your profit margins (unless you have unlimited acreage). Your row spacing is WAY to big. Even in the watermelon you only need a few feet between rows. If you can see bare ground between rows your wasting land. those vines should be knee deep from one edge of the field to the other. Especially with the fresh veggies, all the space you need is enough to get your tractor tires in there. 
17. i'm new to this but ho do you make those plastic beds 
18. @MaizeValleyWinery:Ok.I planted mine 6' apart.shoot guess i can plan more melons then. I'm working a garden thats 85' long and 45' wide.I was worried that the melon vine's might choking each other out,the row are 9' apart.
19. @mogges1 Yes, I think that is a 24" wheel we had on for that particular planting.
20. How far apart did these get planted.It looks like the row are 9 to 10 feet apart, but in the rows the watermelon's look to be 2 foot apart.
