Mini Love Watermelon

Warming mat definitely recommended for starting seeds, germination not quite the best.

First time growing this variety. I started 9 seeds to begin with and only 2 came up. My soil was a little cool, around 68 degrees or so, so I purchased a warming mat and once I placed the mat and the soil warmed up to 75-77 degrees 2 of 9 came up...still waiting to see if they other 7 will sprout. Ended up soaking 6 more and putting them in a moist paper towel to check germination. Out of 6 seeds 5 germinated and I am now waiting for them to sprout in soil. So not necessarily a bad review since I haven't seen the final product, but I definitely recommend a warming mat for these seeds and to also soak them first and place them in a moist paper towel to see how many seeds actually germinate.

Poor Germination

Of 12 seeds planted, 3 sprouted.
