Professional Planting & Care:

1. Bed Preparation: Raise beds at least 30 cm high and 1–1.20 meters wide to ensure excellent drainage and root aeration.
2. Pollination Requirement: IMPORTANT: As a seedless variety, Magnum requires interplanting with a seeded watermelon variety at a ratio of 3–4 seedless plants to 1 seeded plant to facilitate pollination.
3. Transplanting: Move seedlings to the field when they are 9–12 days old for optimal establishment.
4. Pruning Strategy: 10–15 days after transplanting, prune the vines to leave the 3 strongest branches per plant.
5. Fruit Management: Remove the first female flower. Select the second or third flower (at approximately the 13th node or higher) for final fruit development to ensure maximum size and sweetness.
