Re: \Melons
The girl at the farm made it and not me so I don't know what she did...but it sure is good!
Well, now we have the opposite problem with the raccoons eating them all. We have hot wire and everything. I think they are just willing to get shocked. It's so dry and desolate here that there is no food for them and they are willing to risk their lives. We joke that our only hope is that they get too fat to climb the over the 8 foot fence, hot wire and all.

Re: \Melons
I've heard this stops deer...it may stop raccoons too....
take some bars of Irish Spring soap and cut slivers off of it and drop them all around the fence area. Something about the way it smells, the deer don't like. Maybe raccoons won't like it either.
Maybe for the raccoons, you can take some stuff that has started to rot and toss it away from the garden for them. Not sure if that would help or not...but may be worth a try if it does work.
