Planted some watermelon yesterday, and I’ll be planting some cantaloupe and probably some pumpkins once my foot stops hurting!

I’ve never grown watermelon before, I dug out the top soil and threw some rotting logs and branches on the bottom, then I piled mostly decomposed compost from my pile in, then I piled the top soil on top of that to make a big 5-6ft long mound like the Hugulkultur method

Fucked up my foot though, staying off of it for a few days, I think it has been all the shoveling lately wearing a pair of cheap ass shoes. Getting a pair of work boots for this shit.

What’d I miss, why is your feets hurtin? Did you aggravate your old football injury form a couple years ago, or what?

#3

Yeah man, I’m gimping around the house since last night with a crutch as a cane, I can walk on it but I’m trying to keep the bulk of my weight off of it for a few days. I think it was all the shoveling lately with the flimsy shoes.

#4

Yeah, I’d suggest staying off of it as much as possible for a day or two, and you’re right you should get some better “work” shoes or boots for yer digging and such.

#5

Yeah that be what I’m doing and I’m bored as all fuck… guess I’ll smoke some more pot.
