They don't need high nitrogen fertiliser they like organic food, dynamic lifter for example. If they have too much nitrogen they will grow a lot of leaves and not much fruit.Insects don't worry them too much and if they do start to eat the leaves you can spray them with a mixture of golden syrup and water, about half and half, which will stop most insects and won't harm plants.

I grew cantaloupe before. It needs no special attention.
