What Are The Secrets To Growing Watermelon And Cantaloupe?

I tried to grow these 2 fruits only one time. However, they didn’t get any size to them at all. What can I do to ensure a good crop? How do I ensure that they will even grow. I’m actually afraid of trying to grow them again. Any suggestions?
