farming method
- Watermelon seeds are sown directly into the permanent location once the soil has warmed up, at a depth of 4 to 5 cm. Soaking the seeds in water for about 10 hours before sowing improves germination speed. Sow the seeds in holes, placing 7–8 seeds per hole, with approximately 130 cm between holes and rows. After the emergence of 4 true leaves, thin the seedlings, leaving 3 strong plants per hole. The plants require well-draining soil and regular watering, avoiding overwatering.
Planting dates
- In temperate regions: during the spring season.
- In the warm regions of Saudi Arabia: from late winter until spring, avoiding extreme cold at the beginning of growth.
harvest
- Harvesting begins when the fruit has fully grown and reached the appropriate size, and its ripeness is confirmed by the drying of the tendril near the fruit and the change in color of the part touching the ground.
Advice for farmers
- To obtain sweet, high-quality watermelons, regular irrigation is recommended, especially during the fruit set and development stage, with a relative reduction in irrigation before harvest. Choosing well-drained soil and ensuring full sun exposure helps improve pulp quality and increase sugar content.
