Guano in the Garden

I don't know if it's the guano or the diligent watering I've been doing but the cantaloupe plant has start making at least two more cantaloupes.  I was looking at a neighbor's plant yesterday, a heat tolerant cucumber vine, and it's doing way better than it.

I also have one of the tomato plants wraping around pretty well now.  I'll do a little more pulling today to get it where I want it and then wheigh it to the ground for it to root well before fall creeps in. Should have plenty of tomatoes this season.

Guano

I got some bat guano over the weekend and sprinkled it in the garden.  I've heard it does great things but I've never had the chance to try it.  The garden is still doing well and i watered it in yesterday.  I guess I'll have to go look at ti this afternoon and see if there are any immediate effects.  Probably not but I was going to look it over anyway.  I only used half of what I got so there will be more if it needs another treatment.
I was also wondering if it might keep some bugs or animals out.  It does have an unusual odor to it.
