I have tried numerous times to grow canteloupe with never any success. This year, after most of my garden was growing, I noticed a little vine coming up in the beets. I knew it wasn't a weed, but something that had volunteered from the compost Bryce had buried there last year, so I let it grow. I knew the beets would be coming out fairly quickly and it wouldn't hurt to have a vine in that space. Look what it turned out to be!
And oh, it was tasty! There is another melon out there, but we'll see if it gets ripe. I picked this one when the wasps were all over it - they knew it was sweet.

Not bad at all for a weed.
You'll have to make sure you compost the seeds from that one. :)
