missing melons

16 years ago

I planted cantaloupe and sugar baby watermelons in my garden .The watermelons have fruit on them but there is none on the cantaloupe the plants are about the same size as the watermelons. They were both planted at the same time and I have lots of blooms but no melons does it take longer for cantaloupe to grow than other melons?

Thanks for the tip,I will post there and hopefully someone can help me . I am rethinking this whole gardening thing, out of all the flowers I planted the only blooms I am seeing are on my cantaloupe but I will say that they are pretty little yellow flowers.
