Crimson Sweet Watermelon Seed

The Crimson Sweet Watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) is an annual trailing herbaceous plant from the Cucurbitaceae family. Its large, juicy fruits can weigh between 5-8 Kg, featuring a deep pink or red pulp that is refreshingly sweet. This species is not only known for its delightful taste but also for its high water content (over 90%).

Growing Recommendations: sow between February and May depending on your desired cycle and cultivation area. You can either plant directly in the soil and later thin the plants or use trays for subsequent transplanting when they have 2–3 leaves. Drip irrigation is suggested, and using plastic mulch or tunnels can aid in early production. Harvest from June in early areas.
