Planting Honeydew And Onions - Gardening Report
Honeydew is one of my favorite fruit during summer. I like it more than melon as it has a special flavor. I used to buy it from the farmers market as we had only a few each year. It's not easy to grow it, needs a special soil and I'm not sure pours is suitable for it but we decided to give it a try this year.
These are the seedlings already growing, the pot is full of roots, which is the goal of planting them separately, in small pots.
A few days ago it was time to plant them outside. The weed stopping foil was placed on the ground so I planted 14 honeydew seedlings outside. The main reason of the foil in this case is to stop the weed. The honeydew is growing on the ground and in case of too much rain, which happens often, the fruit is not protected and starts to rot. With this foil protection rotting can be avoided.
I can hardly wait to get some nice, delicious fruits as there's nothing better than to pick one in the morning from the garden and have it for breakfast :)
These are pepper seedlings that also needed to be planted outside.
What you see here is all pepper, red, yellow, green, round, long, hot pepper, you name it.
And here it is, my onion field! My hard work is paying off :) It's not easy to plant onion bulbs but it worth it at the end when you see onions growing. These are still young but I have been able to have a few and it tastes great.

Look at those cute little seedlings... I'm so jealous.
Here in Belgium, there's a big chance on night frost during the next couple of nights, so all my seedlings are still impatiently waiting indoors until they can be planted out without the risk that they will freeze to death.
Thank you very much.
Beautiful!
You are off to a great start for sure. You are going to have onions for daaaayyyysss. Haha.
Cheers and happy gardening!!
Great work, Erika! Fingers crossed for a rich crop of honeydews (I love them too). 🙂
Thank you dear Roxy, let's hope I can post some fruit photos soon 😉
Fruity season is just around the corner. My cherries started to get a delicious yellow color, soon to be red. 😋
Lucky you, we don't have fruit trees except for a plum tree that loses its fruits before they can be picked. No cherries ☹️
I wish you luck with the honeydews, they are delicious. I've never grown them, but I have tried my hand at cantaloupe and watermelon, which are both very challenging where I live.
Your space looks so wide open and endless. How nice.
