83 days from direct-sowing.
Absolutely the best for seedling vigor! These 21-24 lb. fruits are packed with delectable bright red flesh. Disease-resistant vines take off fast and bear generously.
Since this is a seedless variety, we've included pollinator seed in every packet. But if you don't want to plant the whole packet, if you plant Top Gun near any seeded watermelon variety, the honey bees will cross-pollinate it for you! And if you've never grown seedless watermelon before, know that in addition to your seedless melons, you'll get a few with seeds, and a few that are smaller and paler than the rest (but just as delicious). That's the answer to the question everyone asks: "How do you get seeds from a seedless watermelon?"
Sow the seeds direct when the soil is warm and all danger of frost is past. Sow the seeds in raised hills or rows 3 inches high. Thin to 3 plants per hill 3 feet apart, or 1 plant per foot in rows. For earlier fruit, seeds may be started indoors. Pkt is 10 seeds.
