Cantaloupe or Musk Melon?
I'm not too happy about the melons this year.
The plants looked good and they started to produce early but the fruit did not get very big and they aren't very sweet. I must have picked up a variety for cooler climates because this one can't take the heat either. The melons are elongated and smaller than the ones I had two years ago.
I shouldn't sound so disappointed ... after all I am eating melons out of the garden!
