Grow sweet, refreshing fruit with Crimson Sweet Watermelon—an excellent choice for summer eating, sharing, and seasonal harvests.

This heirloom variety is known for its high sugar content, round shape, and classic striped rind. Crimson Sweet produces large, flavorful melons and performs well in a variety of growing regions when given space and warmth.

These seeds are 100% heirloom, non-GMO, and open-pollinated, allowing you to grow, harvest, and replant your crop season after season as part of a self-sufficient garden.

Planting Instructions

Watermelon requires warm soil, space to spread, and consistent care:

  • Planting Time: Sow seeds after the last frost in warm, fertile soil
  • Planting Depth: Sow seeds about 1 inch deep
  • Spacing: Plant in hills spaced about 3 feet apart
  • Seed Groups: Plant 4–6 seeds per hill, then thin to 2–3 strongest plants
  • Sunlight: Full sun required for best growth and fruit development
  • Moisture: Provide 1–2 inches of water per week, keeping soil moist but not saturated
  • Care: Avoid disturbing vines once established and keep weeds under control
  • Emergence: Seedlings typically emerge within 7–10 days

Harvesting Instructions

Knowing when to harvest is key to getting the best flavor:

  • Time to Harvest: Approximately 80 days from planting
  • Ripeness Indicator: Tendrils near the fruit turn brown and dry
  • Ground Spot: The underside develops a creamy yellow color
  • Harvest Method: Cut fruit from the vine using sharp shears
  • Storage: Whole melons can be refrigerated for 1–2 weeks; cut fruit should be wrapped and used within a few days

Saving Seeds

Saving seeds from watermelon is straightforward when fruit is fully mature.

Select a fully ripe melon and remove seeds from the flesh. Rinse thoroughly to remove pulp, then allow seeds to dry completely before storing.

Because watermelons can cross-pollinate with other varieties, isolate plants if you plan to save seeds for consistent results in future growing seasons.
