About this item
- Quintessential, King, Favorite, whatever you want to call it, this watermelon is popular for a reason!
- This delicious watermelon averages 30-50 lbs, but sometimes gets as big as 75 lbs! Plants grow 12-18" tall.
- In areas with shorter growing seasons it is best to start watermelon seeds indoors to get a head start. Plant 3 seeds per pot about 1/4" deep and provide heat to about 80 degrees to increase germination.
- Ensure soil does not dry out due to heat. Seeds should germinate in 1-2 weeks. After seeds have germinated thin to one per pot. Make sure to acclimate plants to the outdoors for several days prior to transplanting to harden them off.
- To sow directly in garden plant 5 seeds per hill 1' apart with 4' between rows. Requires healthy amounts of water and warm temperatures. Black plastic on soil can aid in warming soil.
