Planting Guide To enjoy your own Sugar Baby Watermelons, follow these planting instructions: Full sun is ideal for these watermelons. Plant 1 inch deep, spacing them 3 feet apart.
Plant in fertile, warm soil after the danger of frost has passed. Sow seeds in raised hills, 4 to 6 inches in height. Once the plants reach 1 to 2 inches tall, keep the 2 or 3 strongest seedlings in each group. Ensure regular watering, providing 1 to 2 inches of water per week, and maintain a weed-free environment. Avoid moving the vines. Harvesting Guide To maximize your Sugar Baby Watermelon harvest, adhere to these tips: Check for ripeness when tendrils next to the fruit turn brown and the resting ground area turns creamy yellow.
Cut the watermelons from the vines with sharp shears. Refrigerate whole watermelons for 1 to 2 weeks, or wrap cut sides in plastic for 3 to 4 days of refrigerated storage.
