Sowing and planting instructions for watermelons:
Sow seeds indoors 4–6 weeks before the last frost date or directly in the garden after the threat of frost has passed.
Transplant seedlings into the garden when they have at least two true leaves and the soil temperature is consistently above 70°F (21°C).
Maintain a planting distance of 90–120 cm and plant the rows 1.5–2 metres apart to allow sufficient space for the emerging tendrils.
Watermelons grow best in warm climates with rich, well-drained soil.
Harvesting watermelons:
Watermelons are ready to harvest when the vine closest to the fruit turns brown and dries out, and the bottom of the melon (where it meets the ground) turns yellow. Gently tap the melon; a ripe watermelon will make a hollow sound.
