Hi E Wood I went to a Farmer Market June 28, 2022 buy a watermelon. Decided I am to grow my own watermelon's in my back yard. July 2, 2022. I'll planting 3 watermelon seeds in my back yard. It's growing good so far. Next time when I go back to the Farmer Market I going to ask them do they have Sugar Baby Watermelon. If Farmer Market do have Sugar Baby Watermelon. I buy two sugar baby watermelon. I planted the Sugar Baby Watermelon next year in March or April. Wish me good luck!!!!
I'm growing them now for the first time. Just got my sprouts (day 3 on your video) took longer than 3 days to break soil surface. I'm so excited. Thanks for your video.
Grow watermelon in this way, the fruit will be big and sweet, grow watermelon in a bag of soil. thank you for sharing your knowledge buddy, very useful
Good job- but it’s also a good example of why you don’t pinch off the side shoots. More leaves mean more sugar and they’re helpful if you lose some to fungus
Thankyou so much! I really appreciate that vid. It was just what I was looking out for - simple and effective. I have already saved shared AND Subbed ! 🇦🇺❤️🌻

This is the best video I have ever watched on growing watermelon. But very quickly...why did you prune the second fruit when you can as well hand pollinate it. Do you really think it wouldn't get bigger? Since watermelon plant can produce up to 2 or 3 fruits don't you think it's better and especially for commercial purpose,? Your response will be highly appreciated. Thank you for sharing the video.
Thanks for stopping by my channel. Is all about experiment, i just wanna to make sure all the nutrient goes to the single fruit...and see how big it could reach. Next season, maybe I will try different approach
@@TonysExploration Thanks for your response. Likewise myself I have learned a lot regarding different approach to plant watermelon especially staking upward rather than allow them spreading on inadequate ground.
@@TonysExploration nice. In the greenhouse it varies from 5-10 degree Celsius at night to 25-35 in the daytime.. Could that be the reason the melons grow slow?
What temperature does the watermelon grow at? Also what time of the year to grow it. I live in Europe in apartment. I’m thinking due to change of weather. Winter and summer.
Mine is about on day 14 in terms of growth although it's been waay longer... Could that be because of it growing in a position where it only gets sun half day?
Actually I take a risk for not treating with any fungicide, and at the end, it turn up great. Of course if the fungal attack during seedling stage, then definitely need some anti fungal procedure. Since this is home gardening, and kind of my hobby experimenting with different technique, yeah... is doing fine without much chemical intervention
Just wondering, does home grown melons taste different from supermarket watermelons? I'm looking to learn how to grow stuff you either can't find from stores, or taste much better etc.
I've had supermarket watermelon. I've had home grown watermelon. I've been in the middle east with my war buddies looking for anything we could est that would quench our thirst. Even locally grown watermelon in 120 degree heat tasted the same as the grocery store. The only difference is that now I have a memory and an emotional attachment to watermelon. But that supermarket melon hits the same. Cantaloupe is a different game entirely. Fresh cantaloupe will ALWAYS beat store bought canteloupe.
Hi! :) I love your videos they're super helpful! Thank you so much! :) May I please ask which country do you live in? :) I live in SG and I'm worried that it's too hot to grow the kind of fruits you're growing.
Our plant in terrace garden produced 4 baby watermelons. But two dried away. The other two grew up to the size of big apples, afterwards stopped growing and became yellow . Heart burning experience. Pls. tell me where I went wrong.
You need to do self analysis....depend of which cultivar.. normally I only kept one melon per plant to focus all the energy to single fruit. Also the mosaics virus carry by Whitefly also can cause stunted growth....the last is check the pH..sometimes yr soil can provide all nutrient...but the wrong pH prevent the nutrient uptake. gardening is always about....soil pH and pest management. You get these two right, you almost win the battle
I have several plants growing in doors. I put 2 outside April and only one made it as it was too cold. Do you think its safe to put more watermelon plants outside now?
Thanks....many times nature beat me... sometimes pollination does not happen, sometimes it is rainy seasons, pests, animals and birds that always ahead of me before harvest....haha ...it definitely takes long....very long
Would it be better if you get the whole plant on a trellis so water can run off instead of pooling? Of course you'll also need a way to offset the weight of the watermelon. I've heard of people using fruit nets and even nylon stocking. Hahaha.

I did it almost 20 years ago when I was 9. Nobody believed me that I could grow a watermelon in a pot. But I did it.
That satisfaction must be great and 20 years later , you still have the vivid memory of that..why not grew a new pot again.
Time to prove to yourself you are as good as before if not better! Way to go my friend.

Thank you for watching!!Glad that you like it
Thank you. I'm living in apartment & now trying to grow melons in a small square container. This give me some idea of what to expect
Then I suggest put up a vertical trellis, save up the space
@@TonysExploration thank you for the suggestion
3:11 Now that's a big watermelon 🍉🍉🍉🍉
Thank you for stopping by my channel. Happy Gardening!
This is the coolest thing everrrrr I can't wait to grow my own
Thanks for the awesome video. Three of the labels came off my plants and I didn't know what they were. Thanks to you, I know what one of them is now!
This would be perfect to grow in my garden for the food supplies and use the seeds to grow more
Yeah, keep the cycle going &growing

@Trey Camero , I did nothing special, just a seed, and fertilizer and watering...I am in zone 11b .
Bahut acche and first join you Allah bless you
Good job- but it’s also a good example of why you don’t pinch off the side shoots. More leaves mean more sugar and they’re helpful if you lose some to fungus
That's so great
My mom says that I can’t grow a watermelon at that young age, she didn’t believe me but guess what? It grew
How much should we water it per day????
@@cocff1950 water it only in the morning 😊
@@Herbijik0rd1i planted a watermelon seed few weeks ago and totally forgot about it, but it germinated and is now a tiny lil seedling

Its just so thrilling im so excited mine is just a baby still
great! it will grow exponentially fast !
I’m growing watermelon and cantaloupe right now. I will pluck mine at about when yours was day 71 👍🏻
Ya, I admit I pluck overripe for watermelon
@@TonysExploration - it happens :) sometimes videos showing mistakes are a blessing. ❤️🥰👍🏻
Amazing 👏
Thank you
Plot twist:some are watching this video while eating watermelon
😢
How do you know 😂💯
😂😂😂
I am!
How did you know? who are you? Are outside my house?
Thích trồng theo cách này gọn chỉ cần 2 dây là có cặp dưa tết quan trọng phải canh ngày chuẩn xác.
So cool im growing a strawberries 🍓🍓🍓❤❤❤
How many days do i have to Wait so it turn’s big like when we buy in the store?
75 day onward , keep on eye
Hey I have a question for you. Do you have to pinch off the sideshoots and the secondary fruits that form along with the main one?
Yes ,I did. You can check out in the video...
@@TonysExploration Is it mandatory, absolutely necessary? What if I just dont do it?
@@comedygold12421 ,not necessarily, it will be just fine...I just want to maximize the fruit to the biggest size possible.
Not if you want more than one fruit! I don’t pinch mine off. I let that puppy grow and do it’s thing. I want all the fruit I can get.
@@Sabbathissaturday I concur with you.
This is the best video I have ever watched on growing watermelon. But very quickly...why did you prune the second fruit when you can as well hand pollinate it.

Perlite, to help drainage
@@TonysExploration ok
Good videos ☺️👍👍👍👍👍

Watermelon 😋😋😋
Awesome to see it
Thank you
You must be in a pretty hot climate! I'm trying to grow watermelons in a greenhouse in northwestern Europe... But yours grows so much faster :)
Type, average mean is 25 degree Celsius.
@@TonysExploration nice. In the greenhouse it varies from 5-10 degree Celsius at night to 25-35 in the daytime.. Could that be the reason the melons grow slow?
@@hairyspeakerz3161 make sure it's moisture and there is sun
Beautiful journey 💞❤️😍😍😍😍💯
So beautiful 🥰🥰
Thank you!
yeh gmle mai kon si mitti pdi or kya kya include kiya mitti mai or yeh bad mai kya dala plz btaye
What temperature does the watermelon grow at? Also what time of the year to grow it. I live in Europe in apartment. I’m thinking due to change of weather. Winter and summer.
Around 28-30 Celcius, I live in tropical, so is basically summer throughout the years
All looked Perfekt until you cut opened the watermelon on the dirty ground :))))) Cool video🤟
Thank you for stopping by my channel!
Thank you 😊❤️
Thank you for stopping by my channel..happy Gardening;
Yours grew so fast. What fertilizer you use?
@2:48
Amazing ty
100 day is super fast 👍
Wow...... 😍😍
TQ
Can I ask a question
Like do we only have to grow one watermelon per plant or can we grow like 2-3
Yes you can.the reason I do that is try to maximize the size
@@TonysExploration ohh thanks for replying 👍
Lesser the watermelon, the bigger and tastier it gets
Mine is about on day 14 in terms of growth although it's been waay longer... Could that be because of it growing in a position where it only gets sun half day?
I agree sun play a major role ...also the fertilizer as well
Temperature, humidity, PH of water and soil, fertilizers, sunlight intensity and duration
Did you consider treating it with an anti-fungal, baking soda or peroxide? 🤔
Actually I take a risk for not treating with any fungicide, and at the end, it turn up great. Of course if the fungal attack during seedling stage, then definitely need some anti fungal procedure. Since this is home gardening, and kind of my hobby experimenting with different technique, yeah... is doing fine without much chemical intervention

Reallly great video!!! Love the progress. The biggest watermelon I got was the size of a golf ball lol. It’s always the powdery mildew
TQ, try it again at the hottest season
Hi! :) I love your videos they're super helpful! Thank you so much! :) May I please ask which country do you live in? :) I live in SG and I'm worried that it's too hot to grow the kind of fruits you're growing.
I am yr neighbors...MY. So no worries about too hot
@@TonysExploration Thank you for your reply!! :) Thank you! I will try!!
Do you grow these outdoors? Do you which animals would destroy them? Im going to try it this summer.
Haha...yes outdoor. so far not much animal I heard of go after watermelon except raccoons
My neighbor in North Carolina has a problem with bears eating his.
@@RodgerU , yeah, bear pretty much enjoy everything!
After seeing this vedio which was recommended I subscribed to ur channel so interesting 🤔 one luved this vedio😍♥️
Thank you so much!
What soil do you use? I have the hardest time growing watermelon!
Normal gardening soil .nothing special...most of the time, the pest is the culprit, not the soil
Hello sir.... pollination is necessary?
Yes , is necessary
@@TonysExploration thanks.... I planted 50+ seeds in the soil of my backyard and all plants have grown.
Wow nice
Thank you!
One tip from me: Buy some melons and put them between the vines to impress the neighbors!
Hmmm, probably this is what my neighbour did?🤔😁😁😄😄
@@TonysExploration 😄
Wonderful
TQ
Would sand on top of the soil somehow help keep things dry for the fungus issue? Beginner sorry 😅
that does not help. and once the watermelon plant reach maturity, the plant will eventually die off due to fungus
Good👍
Awesome

Thank you. I too kept one per plant and pinched the tips . As u said I should check pH and do the need.
Nice video
Thank you!
How to understand which one is male and female flower in order to pollinate them??
Female have a bulb behind the petals
Beautiful 😋😵
Thank you😋
I have several plants growing in doors. I put 2 outside April and only one made it as it was too cold. Do you think its safe to put more watermelon plants outside now?
When the soil temperature warm enough and reach 70F , then is good for outdoor. I live in zone 11b , so I don't have this issue
@@TonysExploration Ahhh I see. Form some reason I thought you were in Zone 6-7 . Thank you.
could you tell is thisthe corret time for seeding or shold wait ?
Which month we can start to grow 🪴 watermelon seed
Depend where you stay, I would said when the garden soil reach 70F , then is good to start
Amazing
thank you
Super bro
Thank stopping by my channel!
Hello
I'm growing watermelons in a pot I have too so far but I can't quite see what you're pinching off what are you trimming back
The reason i pinch off the side shoots and trim back the tips of the main stem( after fruit setting) is to focus all the energy to the fruit
Wow 😮 so amazing😍
Thanks
If I don’t want to leave my plant in the grass, can I just buy containers to lay it on so it won’t be touching the grass?
Yes , you can
Hi. My watermelon was successfully pollinate 3 days ago. What fertilizer did you use to make the melon grow? Did you water them normally?
After fruit setting , you can switch to lower N , higher P n K. Just water as usual.
4:50 , Yummy...👍👍❤️
Yes it was!
Mantul Karaeng
It's amazing how every video of fruits lie as to how long it takes to grow because I'm growing different fruits and it takes long
Thanks....many times nature beat me... sometimes pollination does not happen, sometimes it is rainy seasons, pests, animals and birds that always ahead of me before harvest....haha ...it definitely takes long....very long
@@TonysExploration
And that's the sad part of everything 😪
It so good
how often do you water the plant?
That is very subjective, depending on the weather, the golden rule is keeping it moist.
Would it be better if you get the whole plant on a trellis so water can run off instead of pooling? Of course you'll also need a way to offset the weight of the watermelon. I've heard of people using fruit nets and even nylon stocking. Hahaha.
Ya, i plan to do trellis on baby melon cultivar, not this one...too heavy and troublesome.
@@TonysExploration Baby melon sounds like a fun one to grow.
