This variety prefers a light and sandy growing area with plenty of space for large melons to form. Fruits have been known to grow up to 50 lbs a piece! Water this variety generously and consistently for about 10 days until the fruits are about the size of a tennis ball to get them started for success.
Can’t wait to grow next season
Always have loved black diamond watermelon will plant next year since didnt get early enough to plant this year. Cant wait.
Although I had a great germination rate, and great growth of vines and leaves, there was no actual fruit produced from my 6 plants. My cucumbers and acorn squash that were growing on the same trellis fruited as normal so I know it wasn’t lack of pollinators. I’ve eaten black diamond water melon that were produced in my zone for years and they are delicious! I’ll try again next year for sure.
👍💫
i love watermelon more than i love my wife. you can't understand how much I love watermelons. i never had these but felt the need to leave this review. watermelons are great, i love them, best fruit ever. thanks for coming to my ted talk
Awesome producer and neat looking fruit! The abundant cucumber beetles seem to ignore the vines too!
Haven’t planted yet. Looking forward to adding to salads! So happy MIgarden had these. Hard to find Microgreen seeds
So far all 6 seeds that I planted have germinated and are growing well. I am planning on transplanting them into bigger pots soon until they’re ready for the garden.
My old reliable variety, always produces an abundance of tomatoes towards the end of the season!
Little pepper plants popped up quickly, they seem to be doing very well thus far.
