[0002] The melon seedlings of watermelon are conventionally planted on the ground, and the direct contact of watermelon with the ground is not conducive to melon protection, which is easy to be affected by factors such as light and pests and diseases, and thus the surface appearance and melon quality are affected, which is not conducive to sales and economic benefits. Some planting methods also use vertical cultivation, so that the watermelon vines grow along the vertical support, which helps to improve the yield and benefits of watermelon.

[0003] The existing melon frame for watermelon planting is mostly a fixed frame structure or a simple cross support rod for fixed support, and the melon vines grow naturally along the melon frame. However, as the watermelon grows and the weight increases, the melon vines alone cannot bear the weight of the watermelon, and auxiliary binding and knotting are usually required. The existing method for knotting and fixing, such as the method disclosed in Chinese Patent No. CN107409838A, includes operations such as installing a support, making a lifting rope, binding vines, and lifting melons. However, the existing installation support structure for knotting and fixing is mostly fixed, which is not flexible to use and is not convenient for flexible and adaptive adjustment, and it is also not convenient for improving the space utilization of the planting area. Moreover, the fixed binding and knotting can easily tighten the vines during the growth of the melons, which affects the transportation of nutrients, and it is also easy to break the vines, which can cause the watermelon to be cracked. In view of the above problems, the present application is developed after in-depth research.
