Personal Growth Project

For my personal growth project i chose to grow a cantaloupe.  I chose this plant because i wanted something pretty but edible as well.  Cantaloupe is one of my most favorite fruits and I thought it would be interesting to grow.  Also cantaloupes have medicinal purposes as well; when they start to mold they produce the best and highest quality of penicillin.  Penicillin is quite useful in treating bacterial infections and has been known to help cure serious diseases such as syphilis.   Also Cantaloupes are an excellent source of vitamin a and they also help protect against age related muscular degeneration among the elderly.
