We picked the first of six weenie-melons a few weeks ago! Despite its shape (round) and color (very distinctly striped yellow and green), the weenie-melon had seeds - much to Brian's dismay. It was semi-sweet. All in all, very weenie-like - opposite of predictions, oddly shaped, and semi-sweet. :) It was a fun tribute to him. We'll likely plant seeds from one of the melons in the same spot for next year. Hmmm . . . when does one plant watermelon seeds? Sarah had a good idea to water it with sugar-water and see if the fruit turns out sweeter. We'll try that!
