Does watermelon prefer shade or sun?Watermelon is a sun-loving plant that is widely grown from tropical to temperate zones. It is native to Africa and prefers a warm, dry, well-lit growing environment. It also requires a large temperature difference between day and night during its growth process. Does watermelon like sunshine?Watermelon needs sufficient sunlight to grow. Only when there is sufficient light can the yield of watermelon be guaranteed. There is no need to shade it during the growing period. Watermelons can be exposed to the sun in the summer, but young watermelon vines are afraid of the sun. When the light is too strong, the plants should be covered with something during the day and opened for ventilation in the evening. Is watermelon shade tolerant?Watermelon is not a shade-tolerant crop and requires 10-12 hours of sunlight a day. If it is less than 8 hours, the fruit will not grow well, so be sure to give it sufficient light. Watermelon growing environmentWatermelon is not a crop that has strict requirements on soil, but the plant's root system is aerobic and requires sandy loam with good ventilation and drainage. The optimum temperature for plant growth is 24-30℃. Watermelon is drought-resistant but not water-resistant. Normally, you should control the amount of water supplied and replenish water appropriately. Do not allow water to accumulate in the soil. During the rainy season, you should also drain the plants in time to prevent water accumulation. |
