You gonna chop down your bananas and Passifloras and start growing melons? I guarantee you are not going to get $6K for a single watermelon here in CA! :ha:

No but I could probably get a grant and study the relationship between Densuke melon and the California Ferry Shrimp.

Yeah, I've got seeds available. If you want some they're $75 each. Or, if you buy this bridge from me I've been trying to unload in this slow market I'll through in 4 seeds for free. :)
