Watermelons - I swear if anyone at all laughs at this I’m going to be pissed. But watermelon is one of my favorite fruits and I think it would be something cool to grow, and maybe eat towards the end of the semester.
Grapes - My neighbor is growing grapes and they are really good and they seem to be quite easy to grow.
Sun Flowers - They are tall, beautiful and who doesn’t love sunflowers right?
