Description

Small, extra-early watermelon with high sugar content.

A very early watermelon with high sugar content and few seeds.

It has a compact, climbing habit with tendrils of approximately 120 cm and thrives in open ground, even in Central European weather conditions. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to try this heat-loving crop.

The fruits weigh 2–3 kg, usually around 2.5 kg.

Cultivation success and sugar content depend on warmth and sunshine. Melons need a warm location.

The plants grow moderately and require approximately 1–2 m² per plant. Mulch is recommended.

In a warm summer the pulp contains more sugar than in a cool summer.

Sowing instructions: Sow indoors from early April at 24–28 °C, directly with 1–2 seeds per pot (do not keep the pots too moist), or outdoors from mid-May in a warm place.

Possible pests: aphids, mice, mildew, downy mildew and viral diseases.
