    Cucamelon is producing fruit. The plants grows very fast. There are about 8 fruit today. It tasted exactly like a cucumber, but my first experience so am not sure of maturity yet. It is growing on a concrete reinforcing wire about 4 by 8 feet.

    First picking of 23 July 2019 Cucamelon (Melothria scabra). There are two plants and it grows about six inches each day. My grandchildren enjoy the fruit.
