How to Plant Watermelon from Seed

When to Plant Seeds

  • Fall Planting: Ideal for perennial wildflowers, allowing seeds to undergo natural cold stratification over winter.
  • Spring Planting: Suitable for annual and biennial wildflowers, once the danger of frost has passed.

Preparing the Planting Site

  1. Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil.
  2. Remove weeds, grass, and debris to create a bare soil surface.
  3. Loosen the soil with a rake or tiller and mix in a small amount of compost if necessary.

Sowing Seeds Outdoors

  1. Mix seeds with sand or sawdust to ensure even distribution.
  2. Scatter seeds evenly over the soil surface.
  3. Lightly press the seeds into the soil (do not bury them deeply).
  4. Water gently and keep the soil consistently moist until germination.

Sowing Seeds Indoors

  1. Fill seed trays with light, well-draining potting mix.
  2. Sow seeds lightly on the surface and mist with water.
  3. Keep at a temperature of 65-75°F (18-24°C).
  4. Once seedlings develop strong roots, transplant them outdoors.

Pro Tip

Water them lightly, but once established, wildflowers are fairly drought-tolerant.

Bonus: Mixing a variety of species will create a colorful, low-maintenance garden that attracts pollinators like bees and butterflies!

Getting to know your Wildflowers

Wildflowers refer to a diverse group of native flowering plants that grow naturally in meadows, prairies, and forests without human intervention. They come in various shapes, sizes, and colors, and they thrive in different climates depending on the species. Wildflowers are essential for supporting biodiversity, as they attract pollinators like bees, butterflies, and birds while also providing food and habitat for wildlife. They are often drought-tolerant and adaptable to poor soil conditions, making them a sustainable choice for low-maintenance gardens. Some common wildflowers include black-eyed Susans, bluebonnets, and daisies. Wildflower meadows require minimal care and are beneficial for soil health, erosion control, and water conservation. They are often planted in natural landscapes or roadside areas to enhance ecological diversity.

Soil:

  • Wildflowers are adaptable but thrive in well-drained, loamy, or sandy soil.
  • A soil pH of 6.0-7.5 is ideal for most species.

Watering:

Maintenance

Watering:

Weeding:

  • Remove weeds early to reduce competition for nutrients.

Mulching:

  • Apply a thin layer of mulch to help retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.

Our Seed Safety Promise

We do not sell genetically modified seeds — ever. And we don’t use genetic engineering to breed new varieties. Instead, our skilled breeders use traditional, natural crossing methods to create hybrid seeds that are healthy, safe, and packed with potential.

Our Seed Quality Guarantee

At Shido, we believe great gardens start with great seeds — and that means quality comes first. Every seed lot we offer is ensure to generate top-notch germination because your garden deserves nothing less.

To keep our seeds at their peak, we run thorough pathology tests at trusted outside labs. When you open a Shido seed packet, you can trust it’s been nurtured, tested, and approved to give you strong, healthy plants from the very first sprout.

Types of Seeds We Offer

Hybrid Seeds (F1)

F1 hybrid seeds are the garden’s high achievers — created by crossing two specially chosen parent plants for superior vigor, uniformity, and performance. We use only traditional breeding methods to produce these powerhouse seeds.

Open-Pollinated & Heirloom Seeds

Our open-pollinated (OP) seeds naturally reproduce through wind, insects, water, or self-pollination. When grown in isolation, they produce true-to-type plants year after year.

Among our OP seeds are treasured heirloom varieties — old favorites that have been carefully passed down for generations. While OP plants can be less uniform than hybrids, we run our Open-Pollinated Project to select the most reliable, flavorful, and beautiful strains. Many are also available as certified organic seeds.

Non-GMO: What It Means and Why It Matters

GMO (Genetically Modified Organism) is created when scientists alter a plant’s DNA in a lab — often by inserting genes from completely unrelated species — to achieve certain traits, like pest resistance or herbicide tolerance. This is a far cry from natural plant breeding.

At Shido, we believe gardening should stay as close to nature as possible. All our seeds — whether hybrid, heirloom, organic, or open-pollinated — are Non-GMO. They’re bred using traditional methods that respect natural biodiversity, giving you safe, wholesome seeds that grow into plants just as nature intended.

When you plant Shido Non-GMO seeds, you’re choosing purity, sustainability, and peace of mind — along with a garden full of flavor, color, and beauty.
