Did you say ground staining or brown staining? What do you mean?

[@BumbleBeeJunction]

Ground staining is the brown water that pools when overwatering... The brown color is from the tanic acid in the wood, and it can damage young seedlings...

[@SherrysCraftinggarden]

They look good be careful touching your face with the fertilize on your hands Love ya.

[@BumbleBeeJunction]

Yes, thank you !

[@NanaMom104A]

Beautiful watermelon plants. I have some seeds for that type of melon. I planted Moon and Stars watermelons this year. Good luck with your melons.

[@BumbleBeeJunction]

Thanks so much Cathy ! You too !

[@marktoldgardengnome4110]

Have never been successful growing melons of any kind. Anything else no problem. Looking good Tina

[@BumbleBeeJunction]

Getting that feed down below the roots, with a little dirt over it so they dont discover it right away, really helps !

[@polycat7670]

We are heading to our local garden store in the morning. Hoping to load up on all sorts of things. I'll try to upload a few pictures to FB of my haul.

[@BumbleBeeJunction]

Sounds like a plan !

[@henrycooks1883]

How many watermelon can you generally expect off each plant? Is that a seedless watermelon, although none are really seedless.

[@BumbleBeeJunction]

Really, you can pinch off all the blooms except the one closest to the main trunk... That helps ensure you can expect at least 1 good one from each plant...

[@toniatalley1977]

Great. It's getting hot here in Ga for sure. Hope you garden give you a huge abundance!

[@BumbleBeeJunction]

Thanks so much Tonia ! Gonna be a hot one here too, I can already tell...

[@pamlee2734]

Getting ready to transplant my melon plants. Thank you for the fertilizer tip!

[@BumbleBeeJunction]

It really helps to get it up under the plant with a little soil over it so they can discover it at their own pace... Please be sure to subscribe if you have not already, we really appreciate the support !

[@pamelag4529]

omg im so glad you wiped that dirt off i was wondering if you had fell and hurt yourself. glad to see it was dirt lol

[@BumbleBeeJunction]

LOL... I am just a messy gardener ! ahahaha

[@helenmoore8743]

Hi Miss Tina. What is the size of your raised wooden beds?

[@BumbleBeeJunction]

Mark made them 3 ft by 5 ft so he only had to cut a 8 ft board once...

[@verneparrish1540]

What soil mix do watermelons require?

[@BumbleBeeJunction]

We grow them in our super soil mix for raised beds... YT search "Bumblebee Junction Super Soil" for the recipe...

[@deborahtheodore5407]
