This may have been covered in an earlier post, but can you grow more than one big watermelon on a single plant? I am reading into the previous post that there are several strong "mains" and that likely one fruit per vine is ok. So...can you set 2 or 3 per plant and still expect to get something to 200+ lbs?

Sure! You can probably produce 4 or 5 100 pound melons off of one plant. But if you want to try for a 200+ melon you better stick to just one melon.
For in the end, there can be only one!

I agree, if you want a 200#er, only one fruit per plant.
