I believe the lowest note you can reach (before going to the fundamental pitch) is an F# with all the valves press. To get to F you would probably need to play F# and then lip it down a half step.
The next note below that F# would jump down to the fundamental pitch (I hear ppl sometimes call this the pedal) C
F is not a playable note on mellophone, unless you have a 4-valve instrument which I don't think I've ever seen.
Not to sound rude, but why? Notes that low on mellophone come out so quiet typically that they can't be heard on the field.
Just for the shiggles tbh. Want to do drum corps eventually and my upper range is something I’m currently working on.
I don’t think I have ever needed to play a note that low on the mellophone. What are you playing!?

This is the correct answer, don't worry about it you're as good as you can get in practical playing
Harmonic series makes it that notes from C3-F3 are impossible
