Growing Info
- When to Plant: Sow outdoors after danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed, or start seeds indoors about 2–3 weeks before your last frost.
- Planting Depth: Sow approximately ½ inch deep.
- Germination: Usually around 3–10+ days under warm growing conditions.
- Sunlight: Plant in full sun for the best vine growth and fruit production.
- Soil: Use fertile, well-draining soil rich in organic matter. Watermelon prefers warm soil and does not tolerate frost.
- Watering: Keep soil consistently moist while plants establish and fruits develop, but avoid keeping the roots constantly soggy.
- Spacing: Give vines plenty of room to spread. Raised beds and trellising can also work, though developing melons should be supported if grown vertically.
- Harvesting: One of the best features of Golden Midget is its natural ripeness indicator—the rind changes to a striking golden-yellow as the melon matures. The tendril nearest the fruit may also begin drying.
