All of this talk about melons has brought up a sore spot with me.
Plain and simple I cant get a good melon from the store, or on the side of the road they all stink they taste like water and none of them come from Pecos TX where some of the best melons are grown.
And the price is outrageous due to the cost of shipping they sold for $7.00 apiece last summer.

With all of this said I think I will find a place to grow some melons as I can’t stand the thought of paying THAT much for a melon that tastes like one of those wild pie melons that grow wild around here.
I think Blacktail Mountain will be high on the list along with a good orange meated one.

Thanks for the info on what sounds like a good water melon.
