Watermelons

Kelly and I want to use raised beds for most of our plants. We hope this will make maintenance a lot easier. This going to sound a little ridiculous, but I want to try and grow watermelons.  This plant is a heat lover, and does not need a lot of attention. Watermelons produce large spreading vines so allow space for this. 6 ft between rows. Build soil up so the soil stays loose for the roots to grow. Planting: Make holes 1 in deep. Place one to four seeds in each hole. Apply mulch or compost.
