Soooo, back in early July, I found a seed in the piece of honeydew I happened to be eating, and for fun, I decided to try and sprout it, using the paper towel and ziplock method I learned in elementary school. I wasn't really expecting it to sprout or survive, I just thought it would be fun. Well, he sprouted, and is now currently in medium sized plastic pot, and is nearly half a foot tall, has several big, beautiful leaves, some of which have begun to curl, a possible blossom, and has started to lie horizontally. However, it's now fall, and I know melons are summer plants, so I'm worried the upcoming colder weather is gonna kill him. Any advice or tips?? 😅

Hi, Buddy, I just subscribed. 8/28/24 and doing the coffee can method today.. I hope it's not too late in zone 9b. Thank you very, very much.

Oh thank you for this. When my female blossoms went yellow & start falling off, I thought there was something wrong with the plant & I took it out.

I bought one at the Farmer's market and opened it up and it was not ripe. I collected the seeds but need to know if they will still germinate. They aren't black like yours but instead a sort of tan/gray color.

Very informative 👍

It's August and I'm still getting only male flowers. :(

So thank you for this video. I have just plucked the seeds from a store bought cantaloupe. There are many differences in the Google searches I've conducted which is how I found you! My question i love in a ski resort area so we have more winter than summer. Following the one rule all have said which is to plant 3 to 4 weeks before the last area frost. Because our last frost is mid July I won't have the time to grow. I am going to try to grow cantaloupe from my home using the summer sun in summer months and warm locations away from cooling areas. I'll be using both sunlight and grow light. My question is if I opt to do my plan, can I plant it now? August 10th 2024 with outdoor temps getting a high of about 97 to 100 f and a low of 60's? Or is it imperative that I wait until next year and hope for early spring? Also as for the seeds some people say I have to clean, rinse, thoroughly dry, and even freez if they're from store bought cantaloupe. Also I also was told if the seeds float they're bad while those that sink are goo to plant. All of them are floating. Is this true too?

Is zone 6 much different than zone 5 for growing luffa, or does the rule of thumb pretty much still apply when trying to germinate and grow luffa for my zone, or should I tweak it somehow to get a better jump on germinating and attempting to grow it in my location in Iowa?

Ive heard that the pumpkin can also choose to not let some blossoms grow if it has too many pollinated flowers on it. It probably sends out a bunch of females and expects a fraction of them to get pollinated. Also i think a damaged stigma can do the same thing because I broke a part of the stigma one time while pollinating it and the flower fell off. (This is all speculation)

But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen. 2 Peter 3:18 KJV For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16 KJV Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. John 14:6 KJV For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. 2 Corinthians 5:21 KJV That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. Romans 10:9 KJV

thanks a lot for sharing

Good info!

I never knew and now I can do a dew. Thank you for the great info.

Had a lot of success growing these this year, more than we can eat! However, I thought this variety of bean is "stringless", it is not. Still need to "de-string them" :-[

My God what a good video thank you I feel so much better ❤

What an annoying voice and instructions. TALK as if we're adults and not kindergarten PLEASE

Thank you for being so informative and with examples!!!!! Truly helpful. I have three pumpkin vines growing close to each other. I only have a small space. Should I leave them together or separate and will they be harmed if kept together? Thank you again.😊😊😊😊❤❤❤

Do you plan on growing more carnivorous like byblis (rainbow plant), drosera(sundews), or nepenthes or sarracenia ( pitcherplants)

New subscriber here! Just planted my first butter squash today!

I REALLLLLLLY NEEDED this video! Thank you VERY MUCH!!!! I was wondering why my tiny little butternut squashes would turn yellow, then fall off. This video is truly insightful!!!

I’m growing my first tomatillo plants! This information was very helpful, thank you! 😊

If you have really bountiful amounts of butternut squash and multiple vines, then I strongly advise trying to cook some green ones. You’ll be amazed how a good they taste

good information

My first two squash came up a d died off i thought something was wrong but i tell my self they could be practice fruit

🙏

This video has provided me encouragement to save seeds and to plant. I love details. You have provided important ones. Thank you.

What if you don't have 70-80 degree days because you are near your first frost date?

Your potatoes were wonderful and your information was wonderful too thank you

Nice. How big of a pot and (trellis) would I need for four of these bean plants? I just picked up some seedlings today, but didn't realise how vigorous these are!

This is my first year growing tomatillos! I am very excited. I grew them from seeds! Thanks for the video

How do you clean them and salt them

👍 very informative. Subbed also

Wonderful thank you so much

Can you eat the radish in salads raw? How about in a stir fry? Does it need peeling?? Thank you!!

i enjoyed the presentation style. educational, funny and very storylike ❤

Bought a packet of seeds from the seed store, one germinated... Bought a bag from the grocery store, 90% germinated and cost about 100x less 😂

Don’t plant too many in one pot . 5 gallon to one

I grew huge hales last year. So good I’m starting the seeds from them this year and they are already coming up in the garden. I started them outside in my raised beds

Thanks.

Thank you!

Didn’t know about the toxicity to plants, I heard to companion plant pole beans to grow up them. Ugh, I thought that would be really neat to have a natural ‘pole’

Thanks so much

Do you ever plant the coffee can into the ground? I’m curious if these spread and the reason for the can it to keep it contained to one area

Thanks, I have been growing these for 3 years and love them. Last year I failed to plant them and tried Kentucky Wonder and really did not like them after growing the Seychelles which are the greatest pole bean EVER.

I planted a baby butternut squash last year. It did well. I saved some seeds which have sprouted. But i could not get it to grow up a trellis. It would break. Any insight?

Great video! thank you so much.

✌️✌️✌️

Thank you for this video. It was very informative and pleasant to hear and to listen to the entire video.

I saved a bunch of seeds from last year and none are growing for some reason. I also planted what I had left from the store bought seeds and those all sprouted no problem within a week. Not sure what I did wrong, I used the same method you did.
