It's been a couple of weeks since I last updated. It's been really hot here this last week and I was away at fair so they had minimal care in the really hot weather. The plants are showing some shock but especially the zuchinni as they were sitting in water all week due to a root clog in the drain. It' cleared now, but the leaves turned pale and there are white spots on the main branch? coming out of the net pot. Added some bleech to kill whatever that is and they seem to be doing better. The cantalope are still growing like crazy. I haven't pollinated anymore in the last week and I can see the little dead ones that I missed. There are at least 20 that are golfball sized or larger. The very first one looks about ready to pick, just waiting for it to soften a bit on the bottom end then I will pick it.
