DESCRIPTION

Watermelon Seeds - Greybelle

Greybelle was introduced in 1963 by the USDA by crossing Sugar Baby and Charleston Grey. Watermelon is a full sun favorite best sown directly after spring frost but, for earliest starts, begin indoors 3-4 weeks prior. Plant 1-2 Greybelle watermelon seeds 1 inch deep per cell or 6-8 ft apart directly in loamy, regularly moist, well-drained soil. Greybelle watermelon seeds are best grown on 8-10 inch tall mounds to accommodate long trailing vines. Plants are heavy feeders, benefiting from a nitrogen-rich fertilizer every 2-3 weeks until fruiting, then reduce nitrogen in the fertilizer.
