Seed Germination
Germination is a
complex
physiological
process with
photo-dependency,
initiated by water
absorption during a
period of optimum
temperatures. When
these three criteria
are met, seed
dormancy is lifted
and the radicle
emerges, signalling
the end of the
germination process.
Sowing Depth in the
Field
The size of a seed
is a good indication
of its optimum
sowing depth. When
seed is sown too
deep, most of the
reserves in the
endosperm will be
used for germination
and radicle growth,
leaving very little
for further
development. A good
rule of thumb is to
sow at a depth of
four times the seed
width.
Seed storage
Watermelon seed will
last 3 - 4 years
when kept dry (10 -
15% seed moisture
content), and at
cool, constant
temperatures (14 -
20°c). Seed
packaging opened too
long before sowing,
and frequent and
rough handling will
lower watermelon
seed viability
Transplanting
Watermelons are frost-sensitive
and should only be transplanted
in warm, well watered soil.
Transplant shock can be
minimized by transplanting in
the afternoon or by using the
anti-transpirant Vapor Guard.
Apply Kic Start during cool
transplant periods. Seedling
growth is boosted, as it
promotes early root growth,
which is the first priority
after transplanting.
