#shorts #watermelon #gardening #growyourown This year, Envii tried growing a watermelon in the UK 🍉 We thought it would be a great challenge for our products given the UK climate. Here's what happened!

I grew a watermelon in my nans alotment pitch when I was child. I forgot about it until my nan called me one day and I said the melon was ready to harvest, the melon wasn’t ripe enough though and tasted bitter. But that was one of the last memories I had with my nana.

He reminds me of mr bean , The watermelon Competition 😂
Still had at least a week left to mature on vine. Anyone that has experience growing a similar variety would've recommended not to harvest yet. I was definitely hoping you weren't going to cut it off but then...Hope you left others on longer after that. Watermelon can definitely be grown with success in UK with greenhouse

It did look very unripe. I thought maybe it was because it doesn't get hot enough there. Have you told them what to look for to know when it's ready?

@ashleis4070 when harvesting a watermelon look at the tendril closest to the stem the watermelon is attached to, if it's all the way dried up and brown and the watermelon has a nice big cream or yellow spot where it has sat on the ground you are usually good to go, now if you're growing a giant variety look for 3 dried tendrils and the leaves along the stem to die back along with the belly spot that touches the ground, also you can take a large knife and lightly smack the watermelon long ways, if it immediately bursts open or you hear a crack or both then it's definitely ready, if not ready the watermelon won't give at all, they also go from a shiny rind to dull so be sure to pay attention throughout the season so you will notice the difference 😀

Super cool! With the right soil and light, you can grow watermelon anywhere. Now if you tried it straight in UK soil, I doubt you would yield much cos of the soil composition. I can only grow it in Colorado in containers or completely altered beds of soil. Too much clay and other useless sediments.

watermelons need lots of sun, that watermelon from that tent is to whiteish inside, like a sponge and i guess that is how it tasted. where is that watermelonseed from ? why are there no bees for polination ? you had to do the polination artificially by a little brush to mimik bee polination. good that people grow plants for food. 🍉🍊🍋🍎🍇🍈🍒🍑🍓🌶

I saw a video here on KZfaq where someone said one single watermelon plant requires 5ft x 20ft of space, is that true? I wanted to grow some, but if thats the case I definitely don’t have the space because I have other fruits and vegetables growing. I maybe have like another 4ft x 5ft of space left and I am trying to figure out what to put there

That's a small bad watermelon. You can tell by the sound it made when opened and of course the very pale colour. Watermelons need tons of sun and there will never be enough in that forsaken isle.
