Watermelon container growing

[lori_15]

''Tis near end of growing season in my area but I am thinking already about next year's garden.

I live in the southern part of BC known as Canadian desert. It was extremely hot here this summer as it was in many areas of BC. I was thinking of growing baby watermelons next year. But want watermelon to grow up over the top of the pot and flow down to the ground, the pot being about 12 to 14 inches high. Tho not sure of diameter yet. I can give it plenty of water with Irrigation.
I was just wondering about all the vines that crawl along the ground which are probably going to be on small rocks which will help with all the heat watermelons require.
Any ideas Wuld be very much appreciated.
