Greenhouse studies were conducted to compare wild watermelon (Cucumis africanus) and wild cucumber (C. myriocarpus) under five irrigation frequencies. The irrigation frequencies were 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 days, where 0 day implied daily irrigation. Samples were collected at T1 (70 days) and T2 (84 days) to determine (1) relative growth rate (RGR), (2) unit leaf rate (ULR), (3) leaf area ratio (LAR), (4) leaf weight fraction (LWF) and (5) specific leaf area (SLA) using the classical growth analysis tool. Generally, when using RGR and ULR, the model suggested that C. africanus had superior growth rate than C. myriocarpus, whereas for LAR and LWF C. myriocarpus was superior, variable results for SLA. In conclusion, C. myriocarpus exhibited potential for leafiness, a trait that is desirable since the plant leaves are harvested and used as a leafyvegetable by smallholder farming communities in the Limpopo Province, South Africa.
