Hey Mel, I had that happen once with a pumpkin I thru in an open compost pile...
Had some wonderful pumpkins that year...

also, I left one water melon and one musk melon out over winter..
I didn't even see any reminence of watermelon...
it was just a tiny one and didn't think I'd get anything, but I got 3 seed sprouts..

And the muskmelon I saw a bunch of seeds, but they weren't doing anything, so I thought, well,
I'll just bury them, I got 8 sprouts..
*of course the next day 3 were gone from slugs* but I'm keepin' my fingers crossed..

Remember, when transplanting them,
hang on to the leaves and not the stem..
It can grow new leaves if you squeeze/squish it,
but can't and won't grow a new stem if you squeeze or squish that...

Keep us posted, would love to hear how they do!!!
