Sugar Baby Watermelon is a popular heirloom variety producing small round baseball sized fruits with deep red flesh and a thin, dark green rind. Ideal for smaller gardens and home growers, it delivers excellent flavour and refreshing sweetness.
Planting season: Spring to early summer Germination time: 7–14 days Position: Full sun, fertile well-drained soil Days till maturity: 70–80 days Plant height: Vines spreading 1.5–2 m
Growing instructions: Sow seeds directly outdoors once the soil is warm and all frost danger has passed, or start indoors 3–4 weeks earlier and transplant carefully. Provide plenty of space for vines to spread. Water consistently, especially during flowering and fruiting. Harvest when the fruit surface turns slightly dull and the underside changes to yellow.
