My melon plants are putting on. I have one now that is about the size of a football. He is starting to turn yellow with little ridges, only problem is he is splitting. Not into the fruit so much as just on the rind. Is this normal? I thought maybe I have not been watering evenly enough or something. Any thoughts?

I have heard of tomatoes doing that when they have been watered unevenly after the fruit size is set. How close are you to harvest?
