With its golden yellow rind featuring narrow, distinct stripes, this watermelon stands out as a true gem. When it comes to homegrown produce versus store-bought, watermelon truly outshines the rest. Bursting with juicy, multi-layered flavor, a homegrown watermelon from your own garden will leave store-bought options in the dust. Nothing compares to sinking your teeth into a sun-warmed, fresh-from-the-vine melon!
The good news is, watermelon is a relatively fast-growing plant. While it does require a long growing season and thrives in hot weather, it is low-maintenance and just needs some space to spread out. So, let's get you started on growing some delicious melons. If you can grow cucumbers or zucchinis, you can definitely grow watermelons!
Watermelon plants are highly productive, and as long as you have hot enough weather, growing them is a breeze. They require a long growing season of about 80-90 days from seed sowing, and they do not tolerate cool weather. Plant your watermelon seeds when the soil temperature reaches around 70ºF and there are no more cool nights in the forecast, typically two to three weeks after the last frost date in the spring.
To plant your watermelon seeds, wait 7-14 days after the last frost date and sow them 1/2" deep in the soil in small hills or rows spaced 36" apart. In the hills, plant 6-8 seeds, or in the rows, plant 2-3 seeds every 36".
Input your average last frost date to determine the exact time to plant your watermelon seeds. Watermelon is not only delicious but also a good source of potassium, with a high water content of 91%, making it excellent for hydration.
Additionally, seedless watermelons tend to be sweeter due to the presence of more genes, resulting in a fruit that is more flavorful than seeded watermelons. So get ready to enjoy the sweet, juicy rewards of your labor as you watch your watermelon plants thrive and produce delicious fruits in your garden!
