Just out back planting some melon seeds in a 5 inch pot for transplanting in a cauliflower container. I tied off the cauliflower yesterday and it should be ready for harvest in a couple weeks or so. Thinking of what to use the cauliflower container for and decided on musk melons. The musk melon seed packet said for my zone to start seeds end of May to early June. Musk melons like hot weather anyhow so 80 days to harvest will be in August when it is the hottest here. I have two cauliflower container boxes and may decide to plant the small size watermelon in the other container. Maybe some pie pumpkin plants. We like homemade pumpkin pie

While I was out there I looked at the squash plant and seen egg sacs on a couple leaves on the same plant. If they are Damsel bug egg sacs will be helpful in pest control. I better look and see what Damsel bug egg sacs look like.
