Good things really do come in small parcels! The vivid red colour of Watermelon Sugar Baby's super-sweet, crisp, juicy flesh contrasts with glossy dark green skin. This early maturing, small round melon is a perfect size for the fridge.
For early sowing, raise in pots of Yates Black Magic Seed Raising Mix in a well-lit, protected spot. Transplant after 3-4 weeks. For direct sowing press 3-4 seeds into mounds of moist soil 1m apart. Later thin to the two strongest plants. Select a Sunny, well-drained position with plenty of space to grow. Keep well watered until fruit starts to ripen, then reduce watering to sweeten before picking. Harvest when underside turns yellow and the fruit gives a dull, hollow sound when tapped.
Germination 6 - 10 days | Maturity 12 - 14 weeks
