The hanging clips seem to be doing well for the plants.

I like your shade cloth! We are in the 100's now and it is an absolute must.

Are you still using the same pruning method on the melons (where you prune after each fruit)?

yes, I m doing that to the melons also. It seems to work. I really like, no loved the hanging method for the cucumbers. If the leaders / suckers don't have any fruit after 12-18" I cut it back the main stem. Next year I'm going to put up hoops over the cucumber and peppers and eggplants. I have a eggplant growing under the shade cloth on the green house and it's doing well, but the one that get partial shade is struggling. I believe you have your garden area under complete shade this time of year. How is doing?
