Golden Crispy Japanese Melon: Eat like an apple: small golden skinned melons with white flesh. Fruits
develop 30 days after prolific flowering. May be started indoors in colder
climates. Bbob says they are excellent and not available in any market. Seeds are available for $3.50 per 100

Plant close together and thin by moveing or eating overcrowed seedlings. Lettuse will continue to produce if you peel a few leaves at a time from the outside of each plant.

You're so close to the ultimate solution to solar cooling -- in your link to the "Crosley Icyball." Using a solar collector to provide the heat for an ammonia-absorption cooling system doesn't require any electricity at all, and no intermediate conversions -- the heat-to-cooling process is virtually direct. Refer to, or download, the following article from "Home Power Magazine":
