How to Plant Watermelon from Seed

When to Plant Seeds

  • Outdoors: Sow seeds after the danger of frost has passed and soil temperature is at least 70°F.
  • Indoors: Start seeds 2-4 weeks before the last frost if using biodegradable pots for easy transplanting.

Seed Preparation

  • Soak seeds in warm water for a few hours to speed up germination.

Direct Sowing Outdoors

  1. Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil.
  2. Create mounds or raised rows to improve drainage.
  3. Sow 2-3 seeds per hill, about 1 inch deep.
  4. Space hills 3-5 feet apart, allowing room for vine growth.
  5. Water well and keep soil moist until seedlings emerge (7-10 days).

Transplanting Seedlings

  • If started indoors, harden off seedlings before transplanting.
  • Plant them carefully with minimal root disturbance.

Pro Tip

Plant watermelons in well-draining soil with plenty of compost, and give them at least 8 hours of full sun daily. For sweeter melons, cut back on watering as they ripen—the less water, the more concentrated the sugars!

Getting to know your Watermelon

Watermelons are annual vining plants that spread across the ground. They develop long, trailing vines that can extend up to 10 feet or more. Tendrils help the plant attach to structures or sprawl freely. Watermelons grow best in hot summer conditions. Typically take 70-90 days from planting to harvest, depending on the variety.
