You need more than hot potato to warm your plants, and if you use fire with Winter melons you will just lose most of the tiny benefit you get from winter melons.

If you really want to use a melon catapult use melon-pult. Less sun and works fine with fire plants. Still, Winter Melons have the freezing effect against OTHER zombies, and the sluggish recharge (and extra 25 sun!) of Pepper-pult gives a lot to be desired versus Torchwood (no damage, but premium) and Fire Peashooter (free, but deals damage). Even then, Fire Peashooter is non-AoE, so OTHER zombies WON'T be effected. If you think that you can set up winter melons in time (Without spending a ton on plant food) + plants to keep it warm with sliders in effect then by all means use it in the endless zones. I always have a line of Winter Melons in any EZ before of the first flag and without use plant food. It must be a shame that you never play EZ's in the 200+ range then. At the confidence level you have I'm assuming you've never gotten past 100. In the mid 100's there is no way you can have a full row of WM's and not have spent 1 plant food/spent any coins. The zombies come so quick that you won't have enough time to gather 500 sun per row that they come in (Which is super fast), plus enough instants to fend them off.

I actually restart the Endless Zones when I reach the level 100 because my phone have lag when there is a lot of zombies on screen. Anyways, in levels above 300 I think that is almost impossible play without use boosts, plant food or Power-ups, so there is not reason to think that you can play "in the normal way" in those higher levels. So don't expect a strategy for those levels that doesn't use boosts, plant food and Power-ups.
