Growing Notes:

  • Harvesting: It can be tricky to know exactly when a watermelon is ripe and ready to pick. First, know the number of "days to harvest" and begin checking fruits as the harvest date draws closer. Signs to look for are: (1) the bottom of the melon (where it lies on the soil) turns from light green to a yellowish color; (2) the surface color of the fruit turns dull; (3) the skin becomes resistant to penetration by the thumbnail and is rough to the touch; and (4) light green, curly tendril on the stem near the point of attachment of the melon is brown and dry. All of these indicators may not necessarily occur at the same time.
  • Attributes: Hybrid melon with yellow flesh, 10-15 lbs

"The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and there's so many great options for good plants and garden decorations! The jalapeno plants here are the best. You could easily lose a day just browsing through all of their different plant and shopping options."
