2013 All-America Selections Winner! 90 days. Citrullus lanatus. (F1) Harvest Moon Watermelon. The plant produces high yields of 18 to 20 lb, elongated, round watermelons with dark green rinds freckled with bright yellow splotches, similar to the Moon and Stars Watermelons. It has many advantages: it is seedless, ripens earlier, yields higher, has shorter vines, and tastes better! It has crisp, pinkish-red flesh. It is the first-ever hybrid triploid seedless watermelon to ever win the All-America Selection Award. This is perfect for picnics. To produce seedless watermelons, a pollinator is required. We suggest growing Sugar Baby watermelons alongside Harvest Moon as a pollinator. Always a great seller at Farmer’s Markets. An excellent choice for home gardens, market growers, and commercial production. A variety from the USA.

Note: Seedless watermelons require higher temperatures, around 80-90 F, and more time than ordinary watermelon seeds.

Watermelon Planting Information:

Like Cucumbers, watermelons don't do well if roots are disturbed, so it is best to plant seeds directly in the garden. Watermelons require ample space and a sunny location in your garden. Plant 5 to 7 seeds in a hill outdoors. Planting should occur 1 to 2 weeks after the last frost. Plants grow 1 ft tall, and vines spread up to 6 ft.

Soil Requirements:

Requires fertile soil in a well-drained location in the garden. Apply mulch, grass clippings, or straw around the base of the plant. Add well-rotted manure and compost to the soil.

Water Requirements:

Water well during dry and hot spells. Make sure plants get 1" of water per week.

Fertilizer Requirements:

Use Slow Release (6 Month) Fertilizer when transplanting outdoors. Apply Miracle-Gro Liquid Fertilizer every two weeks.

Harvest Tips:

Protect ripening watermelons from damp ground by placing them on boards. Tap the watermelon with your knuckles, and if it sounds hollow, it's ready. Carefully cut watermelons from the plants to prevent damage to the vines.
