How to Save Seeds
Watermelons will readily cross-pollinate with other watermelon varieties, so isolation by approximately 1/4 mile is recommended for maintaining pure seed stock.
Allow fruits to fully ripen on the vine before harvesting seeds. A ripe watermelon will typically have a creamy yellow field spot and produce a hollow sound when tapped.
Once ripe, cut the melon open and scoop out the seeds from the center of the fruit. Separate the seeds from the flesh and rinse thoroughly with water to remove any remaining pulp.
Spread the cleaned seeds on a paper towel or screen in a warm, dry location with good airflow. Allow seeds to dry completely for several days before storing.
Store fully dried seeds in a cool, dry place inside a sealed container or paper envelope for future planting. Properly stored watermelon seeds can remain viable for several years.
Saving watermelon seeds can be a fun family activity while preserving delicious heirloom varieties for future growing seasons.
