To be in
close proximity to one another is to possibly wind up with Cucum-dews,
Water-cumbers or the dreaded Musk-cumber. They may look like what’s on the tray
tag or seed envelope, but your taste buds will paint you a different picture.
The bee is
out there just collecting pollen, she’s not writing down where she’s been or
what’s clinging to her feet; she’s just flying around lookin around, saying to
herself, “Hey, there’s a flower, and Hey there’s a flower”, followed by still
another, “Hey, there’s a flower”. So when you have your Cuc’s planted next to
your Melons she’s just looking at them as a bunch of “close together”
possibilities to speed up her gathering job, and with that comes cross pollination.
So, to
avoid this, plant them at opposite ends of your garden, no matter how small it
might be.
