We love this early-maturing, 10- to 15-lb. variety that is believed to have roots in Russia. With salmon-colored, crisp flesh and red seeds, this 10-inch diameter fruit is ideal for slicing at picnics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing Tips:\u003c\/strong\u003e Katanya watermelon prefers full sun, warm weather, and loose, nutrient-rich soil. Mulch to suppress weeds and retain moisture, and water deeply but infrequently to encourage deep roots. Avoid excessive nitrogen, which can lead to excess vine growth at the expense of fruit development. Train vines or use supports in tight spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59511464886558,"sku":"WM169","price":3.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0999\/2280\/5022\/files\/watermelon_katanya.jpg?v=1782400239","url":"https:\/\/www.rareseeds.com\/products\/watermelon-katanya","provider":"RareSeeds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
