Included with every order are "detailed" growing instructions I have put together "specifically" for watermelons. You'll love the wonderful, bright red flesh--succulent, sweet, juicy. Anthracnose and wilt tolerant, this melon is a prolific producer. Big, long striped fruit with hard rinds weigh 33-37 lbs. and are set on vigorous vines. A larger melon than Charleston Grey and matures a little later. Widely adapted, very popular. Developed at the Florida Agricultural Experiment Station in Leesburg in 1963, Jubilee produces large, elongated melons known for their finely-textured, bright pink-red flesh and deliciously sweet taste. The tough rind has dark green stripes on a light green background. Give vines plenty of room to run. Resistant to anthracnose and fusarium wilt. Jubilee watermelons are crisp and flavorful, and often require around 90 days to reach maturity. The melons are oblong, with alternating dark green and pale green stripes. Jubilees can often weigh roughly 40 lbs. at the end of their growth cycle. Grow Open Pollinated Watermelons - Plant Big Time Jubilee Watermelon Seeds. Big Time Jubilee Watermelon seeds produce a two foot long, one foot in diameter watermelon that is guaranteed to be the life of your party or picnic! Jubilee Improved watermelon seeds thrive in a warm climate where they grow between 26 to 38 pounds! a quick note on seed storage... I feel through my experience the best way to store your seed is in the refrigerator. Some vegetable varieties produce seed that remains viable for many years (tomatoes) and others produce seed that does not store well under any conditions (onions). I believe seed stored under refrigerated conditions could last 10 years or more. I have just planted some ACE 55 seeds from 2000 this last summer 2017. They did great! Germination rates were in the 90% range and these seeds had been sitting in a box in my garage for the past 17 years! I have some of that seed available now listed as Marlboro Ace 55. GET SOME! At Frontier Farms, we specialize in many varieties of Heirloom tomatoes, peppers, plus many other vegetable varieties. WHAT IS AN HEIRLOOM? Heirloom plants are grown from seeds that have been handed down thru generations, saved from year to year, some varieties dating back hundreds of years. Many made the migration from Europe and the East with the immigrants coming to the USA. The seeds are never cross pollinated and so they remain true to their particular characteristics. Heirloom tomatoes come in all colors, shapes, and sizes ? Reds, Pinks, Yellows, Orange, White, Green, Striped, and Black. Ranging in sizes of cherry and grape to large grapefruit size, meaty, or juicy. WHY HEIRLOOM? These tomatoes and other vegetable varieties are more natural, they are non GMO (genetically modified). They do not have as long of a shelf life as store bought tomatoes/vegetables, but that is what makes them special. They have a real fantastic tomato flavor not found in grocery store offerings. These tomatoes/vegetables are indeterminate (they grow all season, they flower all season and they produce tomatoes all season. They don't stop until frost. Once heirloom tomatoes and vegetables are picked, they do not have a long shelf life as hybrids but they more than make up for any shortcomings in flavor. This is true for all heirloom vegetables.Please see my other listings and my store for more great varieties and thank you!
