Sow seed or set a transplant there. Watermelon roots commonly grow 8 to 10 or more inches deep; the hole and mound become a reservoir of moisture and nutrients. Care. Space watermelons 6 to 12 feet apart; donât let plants compete for soil moisture or nutrients.
With about 4.7 cups in a 2 lb. bag, that equates to about 2 1/3 cups in a pound. So 1 cup would be just under 1/2 lb., 3/4 cup would equate to about 1/3 lb., and 1/2 cup would be just under 1/4 lb. of brown sugar. Measure out the sugar. Use a dry measuring cup to ensure accuracy.
Cups are a volume measurement rather than a weight measurement. I've given you a link below for converting lots of things that are normally sold by the pound into the amount of cups. Granulated white sugar is 2 1/4 cups per pound while brown sugar (it doesn't say how well packed it is) reads 3 1/2 cups per pound. Enjoy your candy!
