How to Grow the Seeds:
- Prepare the Soil: Loosen the soil and plant your seeds at a depth of 0.3-0.5 cm. Be careful not to plant them too deep or too close together.
- Check the Temperature: Ensure that the temperature is suitable for sowing the seeds. The optimal temperature for germination is between 18-25°C.
- Watering: Water the seeds once or twice a day, but avoid overwatering.
- Sunlight: Keep the soil moist and place the seeds in a sunny location.
- Seeds typically take 15 to 25 days to grow, so please be patient!
Tips Note:
- Soaking seeds larger than 0.5 mm in warm water for 8 hours before planting can improve germination. This helps the seeds, which are in a dormant state, absorb the necessary water to begin growing.
- Species and varieties: Exotic watermelon seeds refer to varieties of Citrullus lanatus, a plant species in the family Cucurbitaceae. There are numerous exotic varieties of watermelon seeds, including 'Moon and Stars', 'Golden Midget', and 'Ali Baba', each offering unique characteristics in terms of size, color, and taste.
- Hybrid or heirloom: Most exotic watermelon seeds are heirloom varieties, meaning they have been passed down through generations due to their desirable traits. Heirloom seeds are open-pollinated, which allows gardeners to save and replant these seeds every year.
- Pruning and training: Watermelons typically do not require pruning. However, some gardeners choose to prune the plant to allow it to focus energy on growing larger fruits. Training watermelons on a trellis can save space and prevent diseases.
- Fertilization needs: Watermelons require a high amount of nutrients. A balanced fertilizer that contains nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium is recommended. Additional calcium and magnesium can also benefit the plant.
- Hardiness zones: Watermelons are warm-season crops that thrive in USDA hardiness zones 3-11. However, exotic varieties may have specific zone preferences.
- Climate requirements: Watermelons prefer a long, warm growing season and require full sun. They need well-drained soil and consistent watering. Exotic varieties may have additional specific climate requirements.
