Default 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?

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.

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.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
