were growing some Charleston Grays this year. thier big, and long watermelons. i till up my garden spot, rake it down,then add horse crap, till that in, fertilize with 10/10/10, add some dolomite lime, then hose it down real good, and plant the seeds.
watermelon are pretty easy to grow, and don't require alot of work, other than prepping your ground...bb...
