Picking my first honeydew


When is a rockmelon not a rockmelon? When it is a honeydew. When the seeds germinated, it looked like a rockmelon plant. I knew I had lots of rockmelon seeds in my compost, so assumed they were all rockmelons. However, now that the fruit has appeared, it is evident that one of them was actually honeydew. I was surprised as I rarely buy honeydew. So here is the first one that I have picked, weighing in at 1.1kg. Reasonably nice tasting but honeydew is not one of our favourite melons in this household. Now waiting to pick rockmelons!
