I gave up on melons and squashes. Too many pests. So I'm going to pass on them for a year or two to see if I can get the bugs to die off. Urgh.
I don't really have a good place indoors to start plants. I think I'll just take my chances with the super cheap huge flats o' plants. I had really good luck with those last year. I had petunias coming out my ears...they were tiny little plants with only a few flowers, but ALL of them made it and spread. They went nuts!
