Stuck melon

Melon expanding into the welded wire fence

I guess this melon couldn’t decide on which side of the fence it wanted to hang, so is now wedged in the middle. I had to bend the wire on both sides to free it. (I chose to have it outside the fence because it was less likely to become dog food there. Griffin likes ripe melon.)

There are currently about 10 melons developing on the vines I planted at the beginning of Spring. This is the second round of set melons for these vines. The pollinators have been busy!
