One of the secrets I found to growing good melons is to mix in some sand in the soil before planting the seeds. Just a little, but it makes a difference! Bummer about the slugs - they are nasty little things, aren't they? I wonder if there is a natural deterrent to them? You got my curiosity up - so I'm going to search the net to see - if I find anything I'll give you a shout. Hugs, Wendy Hi Tom!
