Content: A final possibility for small watermelons…maybe you haven’t waited long enough. Watermelons grow quickly, but they need at least 70-130 days to mature. Also, if your vines set many fruit, you may want to remove some of it. If the plant it trying to nourish lots of fruit, they will never attain any great size. That’s how giant pumpkins are grown. Only the largest fruit is left on the vine to languish and grow to gigantic proportions.
