1、 Seedling raising time

The maturity of watermelon has an inseparable relationship with its breeding environment. Generally, the best time for watermelon seedling cultivation is from the middle of March to the beginning of April, because there is more spring rain and the temperature rises, which is suitable for the growth of seeds. If the temperature is high and the soil is fertile, seedlings can be raised in February and March, and transplanting can be carried out more than a month before planting

2、 Seedling raising method

1. First put the prepared seeds in the sun, then soak them in warm water for several hours, and then take gauze to remove the film on the seeds. After sterilization, put it on a wet cloth sprayed with water and put it in a warm place

2. The soil used for planting watermelon should not only be loose, but also have good drainage and air permeability. It is best to have some sandy soil, which can be mixed with some soil mixed farmyard fertilizer, but it can be used only after sterilization treatment

3. Plant the sprouted seed into the soil, cover it with a layer of soil, and then water it
