| Hi all,
How many fruits should I expect from a Noir des Carmes plant? If my Petit Gris de Rennes gets out of it's growing rut how many should each of those plants produce? |

| Julie, I grew both varieties two years ago. Noir des Carmes was very productive, and ripened fairly early. Taste was very good. I think I liked them even a little more, eaten warm, soon after picking. Petit Gris de Rennes ripened significantly later, and produced a decent number of fruits(I only got about four to ripen before frost). These were outstanding in flavor. I hope they do well for you.

| Douglas, thanks for your reply. Like you, I kind of planted these as an afterthought :) I'm just happy they are growing at all. My neighbors think I'm mad to be growing melons out in the open and not in a greenhouse. Oh well, I hope I can prove them wrong. |

| Mmm..nevermind my previous post. After tying up the NdC vines they produced tendrils. I only tied them up two days ago...coincidence or just what they wanted? Who knows. |
