High Mowing Organic Small Shining Light Watermelon Seeds

This watermelon is classified as an "icebox" type, meaning it produces smaller, more manageable fruits, ideal for smaller households or limited storage. The Small Shining Light watermelon has a sweet, juicy red flesh and dark green-black rind. 

Sowing Information:

  • Light: Full sun
  • When to Start Inside: 4 weeks before transplanting outdoors
  • When to Sow Outside: Sow seeds outdoors in 12" diameter hills after danger of frost has passed and soil has warmed.
  • Seed Depth: Plant seeds ½ inch deep
  • Seed Spacing: Space hills 8' apart in all directions with 6-8 seeds per hill
  • Thinning: Thin to 3-4 plants per hill
  • Days to Germinate: 4-10 days
  • Days to Maturity: 80-90 days

Growing Notes:

  • Harvesting: Ripeness is determined by four methods: when the tendril nearest the fruit is dried and brown; when the ground spot has turned from white to yellow; when the blossom end of fruit becomes soft; and the ubiquitous “thump test”— fruit should sound hollow. Cut fruit cleanly from the vine to avoid stem-end rot.  
  • Attributes: Round fruits grow to 10-12 inches. Early maturing, good for short seasons.

"Omg I love it."

- Teresa Vazquez, February 2025

"Wow! What a wonderful first time to Bath!! The staff is beautiful!! Professional, knowledgeable and so willing to help and inform. The selection of indoor plants (this is what I came in for) is spectacular and the care they give their plants is exceptional. Hundreds of plants and in my time at Bath saw not one brown leaf. No dying plants and no unhealthy plants which tells me that they are meticulous in their care. I would like to give a shout out to “The Sheriff.” I believe her real name is Martha! Unbelievable human being. They went over and above to help me find the perfect oversized houseplant. They made it a beautiful experience and not just a buying experience. Sheriff!! You made me a happy man, customer and future customer of Bath!! ✌🏼❤️"
