@@rubenbenitez8225 Yeah, I'm from South Texas too and I wanted to know does she mean 1 gallon divided out OVER the week or just LITERALLY once a week because I don't think we could get away with the 'latter' here in Houston, lol! Did you ever get an answer to your question?

@lane4574 5 лет назад

Here's a little friendly tip for all of you. Add some bone meal also and the secret for transplant shock is Vitamin B1. It will help it from being stunted for about 2 weeks to only a couple of days. And I usually add a thin layer of non fertilized soil between the roots and the fertilizer I add to the hole, just in case its a little strong and wont burn a young tender transplant. Later on it will not have to go far to find dinner. Thanks Cali Kim..I grew up in Ventura county . I miss the weather now that its finally raining again down there. QUADS....

@gapskers8643 5 лет назад

You know, question. So this is my first year with a watermelon garden in Minnesota and we’ve had excellent success. My question (also something I’ve been doing) is, do you sip your watermelons? I’ve been turning mine so the white side is up and as it turns green, I turn them again, throughout the year! Our watermelons have been pretty consistent green on all sides. Btw, had a 14 1/2lb melon a couple weeks ago! Good luck over there! ✌️

Thank you for all your helpful videos. I love how you keep it real. We are growing a family garden this year, and two of my four children chose watermelon as one of their choices. We are growing Crimson Sweet and Orange Tendersweet. Because of your videos, we have decided next year we want to try new varieties! So excited to feed my family from our own yard! Thank you!

@tenlamps6183 5 лет назад

Thanks for the video. I grow watermelon every year. I've got seed starts going in the house right now. Our last frost date is April 29 so my starts should be a good size. I like the idea of black plastic around the plants for ground warmth. I've never done that before but it's a good idea as mine are always a little stunted in the beginning of the season. I'm in Illinois.

@lorihuff6702 Год назад

We have sand and don't fertilize. Best watermelon I've ever had this year. I've very picky on the ones I eat. If not super sweet my husband eats them and not me.
