Got my first musk melons growing well in both polytunnel on lottie & greenhouse at home. Experimenting with sprawling orvtraining up. Both lots dping well and having flowers. Used painbrush to pollinate a couple of weeks ago but nada evidence of fruit formation. Can't see much pollen on paintbrush again today so is there a better method?? Insects quite happily coming in & out all day
