AnnualThis 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 color on these. Beautiful addition to the (majority pink shades) zinnias I usually grow.
I have way more celery than I have room to plant!
Planted my basil as soon as thepackets arrived!
Last year I decided to plant a "tunnel" of sunflowers on the other side of my tall blueberry bushes and these added a colorful variety to the typical yellow! These are now a favorite that will be a "grow again!"
I received a packet of this mix with a previous greenstalk order through MIgardener (best price around!) and was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to grow and how delicious it was! I’ve never grown salad greens before and this was the perfect mix. Even after burning out on gardening late in the summer, I will always look forward to growing this salad green mix in the spring. Thanks for introducing me!
