This open-pollinated watermelon variety has one of the highest sugar contents with tests showing 9.5% sugar! Congo watermelon seeds produce big watermelons that are about 27" long x 12" wide and weigh 40 lbs. The rind thick, making this a good shipper, and the flesh is firm, medium-red, and very sweet. Sowing: In cool climates, Congo watermelon seeds should be started indoors, but no sooner than a month before transplanting; plant three seeds per peat pot, 1/4" deep. Provide heat to keep the soil at least 80-85 degrees F. Cut off all but the strongest seedling as soon as true leaves appear, and transplant about a week after frost; put two or three plants in each hill with a 6-8' space in all directions. Gardeners in warm climates will be able to direct sow watermelons as soon as the soil temperature reaches at least 75 degrees F, planting six seeds per hill with 6-8' of space in all directions. Thin to the strongest two or three plants as soon as the seedlings appear. Watermelons should be planted in full sun and rich, loose soil. Young seedlings may benefit from black plastic to warm up the soil.

Since I loath, hate, and abhor seedless, tasteless watermelons that seem to be the only ones available in supermarkets these days, I decided to grow my own. So I boght these seeds. Planted as directed. Nada. Maybe they only germinate in the Congo, hence the name? I dunno. Trying to pre-germinate some of them in damp paper towls and seeing if I can coax a cotyledon to sprout and then replant. Not holding mhy breath.
