    About the Seeds

    Watermelon is an excellent dessert fruit and the fruit juice makes an excellent refreshing and cooling beverage after adding a pinch of salt and black pepper. Watermelon is a trailing annual vine with tendrils. The plant requires 6 to 8 hours of daily sunlight in order to produce fully formed melons. Although watermelon is a fruit, in cultivation practices it is treated as a vegetable.

    FAQs

    When can I harvest watermelons?

    Maturity in watermelon can be judged from the withering of plants tendril, change in fruit belly colour or ground spot to yellow and thumping test. The mature fruits on thumping give a dull sound as against the metallic sound of unripe fruits. However, the knack of recognising a ripe melon comes with experience.

    What type of soil does the crop need?

    Sandy loam soils are best. Alluvial riverbeds are also good for watermelon. The soil should be well drained and should have ample organic matter.

    How to increase the production of watermelons on a plant?

    The excessive vine growth can be pruned manually to restrict the green growth and promote more female flowers. If apical shoot of the plant is pinched and 2 to 4 side shoots are allowed to grow, it gives significantly higher fruit yield.

    How to water this crop?

    Application water should be restricted to the base of the plants and root zone only. Irrigation water should not wet the vines, especially when flowering, or fruit development are in progress, as this may promote diseases.
