The best time for watermelon seedling is from the middle of March to the early April, because there is more rain and the temperature is rising, which is suitable for seed germination. When raising seedlings, the seeds should be treated with germination first. The soil for planting watermelon should be loose and permeable sandy soil, which is the best. It can be mixed with sterilized farmyard manure. The seeds with good germination can be buried in the soil, covered with a thin layer of soil, and watered appropriately.
