How to grow

Direct sowing

Crimson watermelon is usually sown directly in the soil. Sow at a suitable shallow depth in well-prepared ground, leaving enough space between plants for the vines to spread. Maintain moderate soil moisture after sowing until seedlings emerge.

Starting seedlings

Sow in seed trays or containers and transplant to the final growing position once the seedlings reach a suitable size. Allow adequate spacing between plants for healthy growth.

When to plant

Plant Crimson watermelon during warm periods, after cold weather and frost have passed. Exact dates vary by region and should be determined by the grower or an agricultural specialist according to the local climate.

Plant care

Choose a location with good direct daylight for strong growth and high-quality fruit. Water regularly without overwatering and provide good soil drainage. Use a balanced feeding programme suited to the soil and growing system. Check the plants regularly for pests, diseases or other problems and address them as needed.

Harvesting

Pick fully ripe fruit when it reaches the appropriate colour and texture, as assessed by the grower. Harvesting at the right time gives the best flavour and quality.
