Key Features of Sugar Baby Watermelon Seeds

Compact Size
The Sugar Baby watermelon is a smaller variety, typically weighing between 7 to 10 pounds, making it perfect for gardens where space is limited or for gardeners who don’t need an oversized fruit. This compact size means easier harvesting and storage while still providing enough fruit for the family.

Sweet, Juicy Flesh
Known for its exceptional sweetness, Sugar Baby watermelon features deep red flesh that is both refreshing and succulent. It’s the ideal choice for snacking, fruit salads, or even for making homemade watermelon juice.

Round Shape & Dark Green Rind
This variety produces round watermelons with a smooth, dark green rind and contrasting pale green stripes, making them an attractive addition to your garden. Their compact shape makes them easy to handle and store, unlike the larger varieties that can be unwieldy.

Early-Season Producer
Sugar Baby watermelons mature faster than many larger watermelon varieties, making them an excellent option for gardeners who want to enjoy fresh watermelon earlier in the season. They typically take about 75 to 80 days from planting to harvest.

How to Plant and Care for Sugar Baby Watermelon Seeds

Planting Time

Indoors: Start seeds indoors about 4-6 weeks before the last frost date to give them a head start. Transplant the seedlings outside once the threat of frost has passed and the soil has warmed to at least 70°F (21°C).

Direct Sowing Outdoors: Alternatively, you can direct sow Sugar Baby watermelon seeds in the garden once the soil temperature reaches at least 70°F (21°C), typically in late spring to early summer.

Soil Requirements

  • Well-Drained, Loamy Soil: Watermelons thrive in loamy, well-drained soil that is rich in organic matter. Ideal soil pH is slightly acidic to neutral, around 6.0 to 6.8.

Sunlight

  • Full Sun: Watermelons require full sun to produce sweet, ripe fruit. Make sure your planting location gets at least 8 hours of direct sunlight each day.

Spacing

  • 3-4 feet apart: Watermelon vines spread out and need plenty of room to grow. Space your Sugar Baby watermelon plants 3 to 4 feet apart to give them enough space to spread out while maintaining proper airflow.

Watering

  • Consistent Moisture: Watermelons require plenty of moisture, but be careful not to overwater. Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during fruit development, but ensure the soil is well-drained to prevent root rot.

Fertilization

  • Balanced Fertilizer: Use a balanced fertilizer that is high in phosphorus for strong root development and fruiting. Avoid high nitrogen fertilizers, which can promote leafy growth at the expense of fruit.

Mulching

  • Applying mulch around the plants helps to retain moisture, keep the soil temperature consistent, and reduce weed competition.
