Watermelon
 

So I planted a whole garden but all the ran we had early in the summer killed everything but one watermelon plant and it managed to produce just one melon. That melon is now the size of a football and the outside is starting to turn orange, should I pick it?

sound like a pumpkin you have growing.

Let the kids carve it up and call it a jack-o-melon:biggrin2:

You might be right, after looking at some pics online it would appear to be a pumpkin. Not really sure how I got a pumpkin growing nowhere near where the pumpkins were planted but oh well, my son will enjoy it.

You should post a picture of orange watermelon :bigthink:

Your kidding me,you gotta look ONLINE to see what a punkin looks like,:biggrin2:

I know what a pumpkin looks like but had to go online to compare how the plants looked, the plant definitely looks like a pumpkin but its growing where I planted the watermelon. Up until it started to turn orange it looked like a watermelon and since that's what I planted there I had no reason to suspect otherwise. I haven't had a garden in 20yrs and I've never grown pumpkins before.

You need not to splain youself. Tim...

:biggrin2:

Well your accusing me of being an idiot that don't know what a pumpkin looks like.:biggrin2:

All I know is when you pick them a ladder comes in handy.

Good thing you asked, would have been one funny tasting watermelon :beerchug:

Maybe you should pick it and have your Wife make a watermelon pie out of it.

This thread made me elle oh elle. Also made me think of the ridiculous dog combinations like a dorky or a labradoodle for some reason. Pumpkin Mellon pie, sounds like a hybrid Tim, done. Sounds gross but id try it after a few coldies, why not. :beer2:
