Watermelons and melons need the right conditions and good care to grow. Melons are rich in sugar, fat, iron and B vitamins, and eating melons reduces stress. Eating watermelon removes salt and toxins from the body and strengthens the body.
Watermelon grows best in neutral soil that is protected from the wind. Watermelon seeds should be soaked in water or a solution of potassium permanganate before sowing, rinsed and washed in lukewarm water after a day. Watermelons should be potted in March-April and then planted in the greenhouse. Watermelons like moisture, so they should be watered liberally - leaving only the roots in and protecting the leaves. Watermelons are harvested before frost.
Melon seeds are sown in the second half of April in peat pots. In the greenhouse, melons are grown in the same way as cucumbers. Melons thrive best in wind-protected, acid-free clay, sandy or silty loam and humus-rich soil. Melons are watered with warm water. Both melons and watermelons require good care to produce a good crop.
