Today, I registered my one year old in the Luling Little Growers watermelon growing contest. It won't be his first time growing melons, but it will be our first competition melon.
Last year, we grew squash... that ended up being GIANT YELLOW MEAT WATERMELONS...
This year, we have been given 20 jubilee watermelon seeds. I've started seeds, probably, every way imaginable. From just throwing them out in the yard and hoping they grow, to starting them in egg cartons with soil, to soaking them in paper towels, there's really no wrong way to start a seed. We have ours soaking in a paper towel, in a ziplock, then will transfer it to the garden once they sprout.
Weigh in is June 25, 2023.
