As I mentioned in my last post, my cantaloupe did not fair well in the first round of planting, with only three plants surviving. I purchased two additional planters (with multiple cantaloupe plants) and planted them last night.
Today, I went out to my garden to find one of the "biodegradable" pots dug up. :( I wonder if this is what happened to my original cantaloupe? Whatever dug up the plant must have been disappointed, since they left the piece of the pot they found a few feet away. We only have one cat and no other animals to speak of. I believe this was another pest from the fields. I replanted the pot and hopefully we will have no more problems.
I also planted a serrano pepper plant to help with the "hot" peppers for my salsa. I hope the cayenne pepper snaps out of its early issues, but I wanted a backup plan.
Everything looks awesome, I will plant some individual plant pictures tomorrow!
