To stop the melon from rotting on the ground, lift the melon place 2 bricks on the ground under the melon , rest a piece of arc mesh on the bricks ( about 12 inch square, place a little dry grass on the arc mesh and lower the melon on to the dry grass. This will allow the air to keep the melon dry.
