The mouth-watering watermelon, ‘Mini Love’ has been developed with quick growth in mind, but retains a compact form and has good disease resistance, so perfect for small spaces and adventurous gardeners! Grow either in open ground or in a 30-40cm diameter pot. - Growing Instructions: If container growing, plant in rich, nutritional compost. Alternatively, add lots of well-conditioned organic matter to the soil. Feed every week with seaweed extract. Once the fruits have set, add a layer of plastic underneath (to increase heat and sunlight reflection) to encourage quicker ripening.
