Watermelon in The Garden Grid™ - Spacing & Tips
Learn how to grow watermelon with the Garden Grid™! Discover optimal spacing, watering tips, and harvesting timelines, plus find helpful guides for other plants and growing zones.
🍉 Watermelon is a unique plant for the Garden Grid™.
Since it spreads out & covers so much area, you’ll want to grow one plant for every two squares. In other words, skip a square between plants.
If you plan to fill more of your garden with watermelon than we did, plant in a checkerboard pattern across your Garden Grid™.
Always grow during your warmest seasons & make sure you give them plenty of water, especially as seeds & seedlings.
Most varieties are ready to harvest 70-90 days after planting.
