I tried planting edible landscaping this year, but it's been working pretty poorly. I think I need figure out a better way to communicate the expectations with pedestrians.

So far 2 Cantaloupes have been taken well before ripening, an unripe green pumpkin was taken, an unripe bell pepper was taken, and they aren't touching the ripe tomatos or strawberries. So I'm very confused.

Maybe I'm expecting them to have too high of a base knowledge of garden plants? I may just move the garden inside the fence and build a small pantry instead.

Cantaloupe on a counter sliced in half being measured as having a 8.25" diameter.

The only time I've ever tried to grow these, they were so tiny. Yours looks excellent!

    Not sure what I'm doing right but my 2 plants have 12 melons between them. Though the others are probably 6" diameter.

    Maybe it's because it's a fresh garden plot and while i do have a turf yard its got a heavy clover mix. So the soil isn't trash.
