However, watermelons need a long, warm growing season to flourish. Knowing when to plant watermelon will help you harvest a bounty of large ripe melons.

Soil temperatures must be at 60- to 65-degrees Fahrenheit at the 4-inch depth, or watermelon seeds will not germinate. Average air temperatures must be between 70 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit.
Picking a ripe watermelon is not the easiest thing to learn, but there are indicators to look for. Watermelon mature rapidly during hot weather. Most are ripe about 32 days after blooming. Deciding when to harvest a melon is most difficult early in the season when vines are green and healthy.
