My understanding, and I believe this is in the "book" is that squash/cucumber/melon family will cross polinate if closely planted to each other. Cantelop or water melon may take on a less desirable flavor if planted near cucumber...at least that's what my fatherinlaw, who grows THE best melons, says. Just be sure to plant dif. species far apart as possible. New to the list, but not to the method...been using Mel's method for more than 15 years...just wish the show was still on.
