Sowing instructions

Sowing Citrullus lanatus "Crimson Sweet" seeds is the first step towards a high-yielding harvest. Plant the seeds in late spring when the soil temperature is consistently above 21°C. Grow the seeds in small pots or sow them directly outdoors. Press the seeds about 2 cm deep into well-drained, nutrient-rich soil. Make sure to keep a distance of 90-120 cm between the plants so that they have enough space to grow. Keep the soil evenly moist, but avoid waterlogging.

Tips and tricks

There are a few helpful tips to help your "Crimson Sweet" watermelons thrive. Provide a sunny location, as watermelons love warmth and light. Mulch the soil around the plants to retain moisture and prevent weed growth. Regular watering is crucial, especially during the fruiting period. You can fertilize with a balanced fertilizer that is high in potassium to promote growth and improve fruit quality. Also make sure to protect the plants from pests such as aphids and spider mites.
