Comment: Upon arrival there was a broken branch on two of the plants. I called GrowJoy to alert them. After speaking with a lady there she assured me all would be well and if it wasn't they would take care of It. So far plants are doing great. We are most pleased. Thanks

Comment: Plants arrived well packaged. I transplanted into my garden upon arrival. Plants are growing and look great. I have never tried to grow cantaloupe before, so time will tell.

Comment: I didn't get many cantaloupes this year but my garden is new (we just moved to this house)and the soil not completely prepared. the ones that did produce was great, hopefully next year the soil will do better for the plants.

Comment: Had our garden out and thriving before kids let our dairy goats into the garden area....The goats REALLY enjoyed the first garden, thankfully GrowJoy was able to get new plants to us right away so we will again have beautiful Cantaloupe this fall.
