We decided to put a fence half-way around one watermelon patch as there was a bit of a thoroughfare there and the impact of peoples’ steps might disturb the sensitive new fruit and make them fall off prematurely. I got in the mood for working on the fence, and the resulting, very basic fence is shown in the two photos below.
Here is a watermelon that has started to get big.
Simone and Jill giving you some perspective of the size of this baby watermelon.
