How Does Your Watermelon Garden Grow? UPDATED!

Can you see these tiny little watermelons?  Their growth is stunted.  Seriously, they've been the same size for at least three weeks.  Is it the heat?  Does anyone have advice about making them grow?


Blogging is so awesome.  The Frugal Hostess asked this question, and gegebrownagain answered!  She said, "Have you picked one to see if they are ripe? Living in the tropics, when it was particularly hot and humid for a few days in a row, our watermelons seemed to stop growing and juts ripened at the size they were at. Eating a watermelon whose red bit was only just bigger than a soft ball is a very interesting experience."

Well, friends, she was RIGHT!!!  Look at this:


And then, to make sure you realize how tiny they are, look at this!


Wow, right?

The Frugal Hostess insists that you come hang out on Facebook. What? Like you don't already spend three hours there a day.
