I've got two acres planned for melons in a four acre plot. The plot is fenced so rabbits can get in, deer might be able to jump in and out, but coyotes can't get through the fence (pig wire and cattle panels). I have an overflow option too, but I hope not to need it. Even with all the tomatoes buffering rows I'm reasonably sure they won't need all that space.
I'm willing to prioritize varieties if I could figure out the best way to do that, but with what I know now planting all of them seems to be my best option. If there are more varieties I should try I'm not opposed to more plants either.
