I'm using the first netting support you demonstrated it works great in my small garden.
Great tutorial ! I have always had success with the pantyhose method.
I love this! ❤️ looking forward to trying this out.
I just tried the net bags and broke off two of my cantaloupes because the bags don't allow enough slack for the stems. Way too much trouble.
I'll try the panty hose.
I like the first net bag you used, I've done it before with my seminole pumpkins. Easy to use, and not quite as stretchy as panty hose which in my experience doesn't support quite as well. But everyone else might have a different experience from my own. I would probably use the second net bag with larger fruit, but I love saving a dime whenever I can, so I prefer things I don't have to go out of my way to buy unless I need it.
One of my sugar baby watermelon has dark spot on bottom.looks like blossom end rot that tomatoes sometimes get
Stay safe with the hurricane headed your way. Hope you’ve got everything staked and ready to go! Thanks for the video
I got net bags & so far so good.
Good Morning
Yeay nice method , thanks for sharing.
Thanks Kim & CG! I just got YouTube Premium free for 3 months from Best Buy with my new computer purchase!
