Cool weather = slow ripening

This week; August 27
Weds UofMN market 11-2pm
Thursday,  Nicollet mall 10-2pm
Saturday,  mill city farmers market 8-1pm
 It is unlikely that I'll be at the Mnpls market Sunday   We're catching up to the corn 
I doubt the next planting will be ripe enough for Sunday 
Everything is ripening slowly.   I have yet the harvest a field melon of any sort 
  I think by Saturday there'll be red watermelon and some cantaloupe 
It'll be the following week before we get into yellow watermelon.   
Hopefully it'll be a warm September so we can all enjoy the melons into October
