One thing to check: Make sure both the Mellon and other plant you're cross breeding are both fully mature before you put the cross breeding crop between them. Otherwise you'll just get spreading, not cross breeding.

Also, to speed things up - if you see a plant sprout and it looks like Melons, just remove it and put down another cross breeding crop. That way you don't waste time - no need to let Melons grow if you don't want Melons.
