Planting guide: Plant after danger of frost in hills 6 to 8 feet apart. Plant seed not over one inch deep 4 to 6 to the hill, pressing soil firmly over them. When plants are well established thin to 2 to each hill. Seed can also be started indoors for an earlier harvest.
I saw your listing and it brought me a bitter-sweet memory. My Daddy (who passed away 3 years ago from skin cancer) would never buy a watermelon unless it was a black diamond. He said there was none sweeter than a black diamond watermelon. After we ate the melon, Daddy would make watermelon jam out of the light green part just under the skin. I never got the recipie from him and oh how I wish I had because I truely miss that sweet melon jam. I hope your bids get high on this auction just because you brought back a good old memory for me. God Bless!
