Listing for 50 seeds
Germination rate 85%
Plant: spring-summer
crop: summer-autumn
How to grow:
Growing watermelons requires lots of space, lots of sun, lots of water and lots of nutrients.
Watermelons are not particularly difficult to grow.
Planting:
You do need at least three months of reliably hot, sunny weather to grow and ripen a watermelon. During that time your average daily maximum temperature should be at least about 20-25°C or 70-80F. Warmer is even better.
Unless you have an extremely short growing season, do NOT start your watermelon seed in a pot or punnet. Do NOT buy watermelon seedlings from a nursery.
Watermelon seed germinates easily and quickly, within a few days. Watermelon plants outgrow the seedling stage very quickly, and they don't like transplanting.
Watermelons need deep, rich, friable soils. To grow watermelons it helps to raise the soil.
Fertilizer:
Watermelons are VERY hungry plants. If your mulch is something like compost or aged animal manures, all the better.
