Ants are beginning to attack the melow balls and we need to spray the farm fast.

@ Magnam, great work, keep it up.
18-10-14... It rained heavily today, but I transplanted some water melon seedlings (F1 Koloss) and planted some seeds(Kaolack). I couldn't spray the grown ones with the Cypeforce 'cos of heavy downpour. Today's weather is favourable for transplanted ones, thank God.

Day 21: This is F1 Koloss variety, fruit can weigh as high as 10-12Kg. It's one of the biggest hybrid varieties around.
