Thanks Nalini ji, Gurcharan ji, Tanay ji, Ajinkya ji and Usha ji for the appreciation. Usha ji, I just threw the seeds after eating the musk melon. around 20 seeds. All germinated. After ten 15 days I selected 4 seedlings rest all I removed and composted. The pot is only 12". I do not care much regarding fertilizer. Just put water in the morning and put some Cow dung around the plants every three four months. Nalini ji, my balcony is not very big. I have two balconies 15' long. I grew all the plants in small pots especially plastic one as they are light weight and require less water. I also talk to my plants in the morning especially to those which are not flowering/fruiting. My Aerides orchids was not flowering. One morning I just asked it why you are not flowering, do you want to go back to the forest back? Then within two weeks I found the flowering buds. I think they pick our thoughts.
Regards, Mani.
