Intro: Grow a square watermelonThis is really, really easy to do. (Note: you may be able to use this technique to grow other stuff in the form of a square ( actually in the form of a cube) and apply thegeneral idea to other shapes.)

Image Notes

1. I'm ready for the next earthquake.

step 1:Materials and toolsYou need 6, 8" square, 3/8" thick (or thicker) sheets of polycarbonate plastic. (Lexan)

You will need 4 gate hinges and 2 hinged clasps with flat head machine screws and hex nuts plus at least 8 or more 1" to 1-1/2" long, thin wood screws and possibly a36" length of angle iron or aluminum angle (cut to 8" lengths to yield four pieces) if you have thinner polycarbonate, a power drill and hole saw, and a hand saw or powsaw such as a jig saw.

step 2:Cut the stem pass throughIn the first sheet drill a 1" diameter hole in the center with the drill and hole saw. Then, using a hand or power saw, cut 2 parallel lines from the hole perpendicular to oedge of the sheet and remove the material between.

Image Notes1. Passageway for stem2. The slot can be the same width as the hole. Be careful not to make either too big - but just big enough to fit the stem.

step 3:Add first set of hingesUse a box to rest the left side sheet, place the top sheet left edge over the left side sheet edge and fasten the sheets together as shown in the diagram with 2 hinges.

Image Notes1. First sheet rests on top of second sheet and the other side sheets.2. Use flat head machine screws with a counter-sink hole drilled on the inside ofthe plastic and hex nuts on outside top of the hinge. (See next picture of screw.)

step 4:Trim the inset sidesMeasure the width of the sheets and trim each side of the the inset sides by this width.

step 5:Fasten sidesThe edges of the inset sides will have to be trimmed the thickness of the poly you use so they can be inset and still keep the box square. Trimming these edges isprobably the hardest step.

Drill pilot holes through edge of the left and right sheets into side sheets between them to accept the wood screws. Use 2 or more screws per joined edge. A piece ofangle iron or aluminum can be used to beef up the corners if the polycarbonate you have is too thin. (If the poly is too thin, however, it may bulge.)

Image Notes1. You can also connect the sides together if your polycarbonate is too thin for screws by using pieces of angle iron or aluminum, but watch out, if your sides are toothin they will budge.2. One of the two Inset sides that you trimmed.

step 6:Do the bottomPlace the box on its top, add the last sheet for the bottom and secure with hinges as you did the top.

Image Notes1. Box upside down - bottom hinges2. Box upside down - top hinges

step 7:Add the claspsClasps go opposite the hinges on the top and bottom sheets.

step 8:UsagePlant watermelons. As soon they begin to grow large enough to place them in the box with the stem through the slit and hole, do so. Remove when ripe.

Image Notes1. I am here as the result of family planting after my great, great, great, great,great, great... grandmother was killed in the Earthquake of 1995 when she rolledout of the frig and smashed on the floor....2. Just as I get another label stuck on one of these babes ... here comes anotherone with a handful of cash.

Image Notes1. We were selling for 10,000 Yen in June 22, 2001. That's $82.00 USD each2. I'm gonna be rich!

step 9:Addendum: How to grow a watermelonHow to plant your watermelon

Watermelons come in about 1,200 varieties worldwide, divided according to season and seed production. China is by far the worlds largest grower of watermelon.Growing time is from 70 to 85 days for all varieties and growing season begins when all danger of frost has past. Watermelons can be grown indoors anytime of year brequire extra amounts of space and constant temperature between 80 and 85 deg. F.

Seeds for seedlings to be transplanted outdoors may be started indoors 3 weeks before transplanting outdoors. Seeds are planted one inch deep in groups of 3 andseedlings thinned to the best 1 or 2 for planting. You can use this method with peat or potting soil to start seeds indoors. Seedless varieties must be planted alongsideseed producing varieties in order to pollinate and set the fruit.

Hills for single transplants are spaced 2 to 3 feet apart while double transplants are spaced 4 to 5 feet apart. Rows are spaced 7 to 10 feet apart.

How to tell when your watermelon is ripe

Use black plastic to cover the hills and rows and plant through the plastic. Dr ip irrigation is sometimes used sparingly in cooler climates.

Use a combination of the following indicators to determine when your watermelons are ripe:

1. light green, curly tendrils on the stem near the point of attachment of the melon usually turn brown and dry;2. the surface color of the fruit turns dull;3. the skin becomes resistant to penetration by the thumbnail and is rough to the touch; and4. the bottom of the melon (where it lies on the soil) turns from light green to a yellowish color.

Many watermelons do not emit the proverbial "dull thud"when ripe. For these, the dull thud may indicate an over-ripe, mushy melon. The above indicators for choosingripe watermelon are therefore much more reliable than "thumping" the melon with a knuckle.

Image Notes1. I picked up these two varieties sold at the Home Depot. The one on the rightlooks like its the one for the job but maybe the one on the left is sweeter...

Image Notes1. This will probably work

Image Notes1. Dang! Look its started growing before I even planted it. ;D

I died with my head in a washing machine says: Nov 1, 2009. 4:05 AM REPI read about these in an old magazine witch was about 20 years old so its not exactly a new idea :)

mavr1ck1 says: Jun 12, 2010. 12:49 PM REPSo what. Writer didn't say it was original, just described how to grow it square. Why would you want to tear them down, it makes you look small and

weak.

p88lux says: Nov 2, 2009. 8:34 AM REPTrue.. Disneyland grow their cucumbers in the shape of mickey mouses head.. seen on the travel channel a few months ago..

I died with my head in a washing machine says: Jan 25, 2010. 5:15 AM REPcool :)

paperclip32 says: Jun 11, 2010. 8:34 AM REPThey had mouse candy apples too,but not grown like this.They just used marshmallows for ears.Still good though.

indestructibleguy says: Jun 9, 2010. 6:18 PM REPwould it work with apples? then you would cut a small cube from inside an fill it with caramel and chocolate syrup... hmmm....

paperclip32 says: Jun 11, 2010. 8:33 AM REPI think if you made this box and put a pipe on the middle,you'd have a holed fruit of which you can stuff.

indestructibleguy says: Jun 12, 2010. 8:16 AM REPwill the fruit grow around it?

madmada says: Jun 11, 2010. 12:27 AM REP

lol, reminds me of the time 'homer' brought a square watermelon in the episode when they went to japan :)

Ward_Nox says: Jun 10, 2010. 2:24 PM REPyou tried it with pumpkins?

I had a slip larger than my boat so I just attached them to the dock. Then I got a bigger boat and build two above ground planter boxes othe deck. I even tried to grow an orange tree, to combat the scurvy but I live in Alaska.
