Notes
'Early Honeydew' bought from the Giant grocery rack. Transplanted 02 June 2013 – mounded in leaf compost to compensate for the terrible soil. If it survives, great, if not I'll try something else. 08 June 13 – something ate all the leaves! I think we might have a deer raiding our community garden. 30 June 2013 – definitely eaten and dead…

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
