Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

Yellow watermelon seeds typically do not require any special preparation before planting. However, soaking them in water for 24 hours before planting can help speed up germination.

Sowing:

Wait until the soil temperature has warmed to at least 70°F (21°C) before sowing yellow watermelon seeds. This usually occurs when the soil has reached a consistent temperature of around 65°F (18°C) or higher.
Choose a sunny location in your garden with well-drained soil. Clear away any debris and weeds from the planting area.
Plant the seeds directly into the soil to a depth of about 1 inch (2.5 cm). Space the seeds 2-3 feet apart in rows that are 6-8 feet apart to allow ample room for vine growth.
Alternatively, you can start yellow watermelon seeds indoors 3-4 weeks before the last expected frost date in your area. Use biodegradable pots or seedling trays filled with seed-starting mix. Plant one seed per pot or cell, then transplant the seedlings outdoors once the soil has warmed up.

Germination:

Yellow watermelon seeds typically germinate within 7-10 days under optimal conditions.
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged during the germination period. Use a gentle spray or mist to water the soil to avoid displacing the seeds.

Transplanting:

If you started your seeds indoors, transplant the seedlings outdoors once they have developed 2-3 true leaves and the soil temperature has warmed up.
Harden off the seedlings by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over the course of 7-10 days before transplanting. Start with a few hours of exposure to direct sunlight and gradually increase the time each day.
When transplanting, carefully remove the seedlings from their pots or seedling trays and plant them at the same depth they were growing indoors. Water them thoroughly after transplanting to help them establish in their new location.

Care and Maintenance:

Provide consistent moisture throughout the growing season, especially during hot, dry periods. Water deeply to encourage deep root growth and prevent the soil from drying out completely.
Mulch around the base of the plants to suppress weeds, retain soil moisture, and maintain even soil temperature.
Monitor the plants for pests and diseases, such as aphids, cucumber beetles, and powdery mildew, and take appropriate measures to control them if necessary.
Harvest the yellow watermelons when they are fully ripe. Look for signs such as a dull, matte appearance, a creamy yellow color on the underside, and a hollow sound when tapped. Cut the fruits from the vines with a sharp knife or pruning shears, leaving a short stem attached.

Happy gardening!
