Wetsel Seed™ Urban Garden California Sweet Bush Patio Watermelon Seed
10 Seed Packet
Cal Sweet Bush is another example of how ongoing breeding efforts result in a new and better product. These watermelons have compact, bushy vines that grow only 14-18” long and still provide enough foliage cover to protect the fruits. Each plant yields 2-3 fruits weighing 10 -12 pounds. Like all AAS Winners, this newbie delivers exceptional taste and texture. Cal Sweet Bush is a great watermelon choice for gardeners with limited space or those wanting a container melon.
For earlier crop start seed indoors 3-4 weeks before night temperatures stay above 55°F/12°C and daytime temperatures stay above 80°F/27°C, then set out. For later crop, sow directly outdoors in sunny location after weather warms. Grows best in light, porous soil. Cultivate and enrich with vegetable food and organic matter. Firm soil over seed. Mulch to conserve moisture and feed every 3 weeks. Pick when ripe.
