That was my initial thought, but I honestly have no idea. Each leaf seems to grow from the centre, where a melon is usually like a vine arrangement? with tendrils.

My first thought was a sickly garden nasturtium Tropaeolum majus. What size are the leaves?

Hi Mike, for an idea of scale you can see my hand in the third photo

Thanks Mike, but the thickness of the stems and also the hairiness of the leaves/stems seems wrong for Tropaeolum to me...

Not salad material then. I was just viewing on my phone and didn't scroll to the other images.
