I'm growing watermelons in a large pot this year up canes and have already got 2 watermelons on the vine. One is larger than a tennis ball and the other is only just starting. As people have said, tons of water seems to be doing the trick! Am thinking of stopping the ends of the vines to just get two large ripe watermelons...
