Congrats! Let it grow back down or add a horizontal extension to the top?

Lucky you! My melons only got like two feet tall last year, but then, it's much colder where I live than where you live. I would say... let it start growing down or add an extension, like Camp said. I've also heard that it helps the melons develop better if you snip the end of the vine (which, I'm pretty sure, will stop all vine growth; someone correct me if I'm wrong). So if you have 2 or 3 melons on the vine, you can probably snip the end of the vine. Otherwise, I say let it keep growing Smile
