1. Choose suitable land.

First of all, to grow delicious watermelons, we need to choose soft and fertile land. The land should preferably be slightly higher and have a slope, which is conducive to the irrigation of the watermelons and ensures that the watermelons are juicy and sweet. Of course, the land selected here should be uncultivated and well-cultivated land.

When choosing watermelon varieties, you should choose watermelons that mature early, have the ability to resist diseases, withstand high temperatures and humidity, and be easy to transport. Of course, the type of watermelon should also be selected according to the local climate and humidity conditions.

3. Choose the right time to sow and plant. The planting time for watermelons is generally around July 15-30, and they can be transplanted and planted in early to mid-August. The specific steps can be divided into three steps: (1) soaking seeds to accelerate germination (2) cultivating strong seedlings (3) planting.

4. Strengthen management. Due to the short growth cycle and fast maturity of watermelon, field management of watermelon should pay special attention to the adverse effects of insect pests on the growth and maturity of watermelon.
