Yellow Buttercup Seedless Watermelons are known for their exceptional flavor and sweet flesh. Produces 14-16 lb fruits and includes pollinator variety.

Known for its great eating quality, Yellow Buttercup Watermelon is a bright-yellow interior seedless watermelon with crisp, sweet flesh. The 14-16 lb. fruits are round-oval in shape and have dark green stripes on a light green background. Good yields are produced on vining plants about 90 days from transplanting. Pollinator variety included. Plant 1 pollinator seed for every 3 Yellow Buttercup Watermelon Seeds.

Watermelons can be direct seeded or transplanted. For direct seeding, we recommend planting Seeds every 12″ along the intended row to ensure a good stand. Once plants emerge, thin plants to one every 2 feet. Watermelons can be susceptible to plant diseases if excess leaf moisture is present. As a result, we recommend using drip irrigation on watermelons to reduce leaf moisture and feed plants more effectively. During periods of heavy rainfall, using a fungicide like Liquid Copper can help to alleviate disease pressure as well.

Watermelons also perform well when transplanted. In early spring, we recommend transplanting to get a jump start on the growing season. Watermelon prefers warmer temperatures for seed to germinate. By transplanting, you can have plants in the ground before the soil temperature warms enough to direct seed. We recommend starting transplants 4-5 weeks before the desired outdoor planting date.

Watermelon transplants grow great in our heavy-duty seed starting trays, where they develop a solid root ball with roots that are trained to grow downward. Plants are ready to go in the ground when they can be easily pulled from the cells in the seed starting tray. Watermelons are ready to harvest when the tendril near the fruit completely dries. The tendril can be found between the fruit stem and the fruit. It is usually curly and green, but will dry when fruits are ready to harvest.

Wonderful!

I've grown this watermelon 2 years in a row. It's delicious, sweet, and juicy. My kids and family love it. They melons are plenty big enough to feed my family of 5 for about 2-3 days. I enjoy growing this and will probably grow it again this year.
