Moreover, growers cultivate sugar baby watermelon because it fits in the icebox or refrigerator. The variety is also called a picnic type. As the name indicates, it is suitable for smaller families. This cultivar grows well in warm Mediterranean climates. Speaking of sugar baby watermelon vine length, it can spread out up to 4 meters (12 feet) or longer. Furthermore, each plant generates a few melons. Sugar baby comes in a perfectly round shape. It features a dark green rind with deep-toned stripes. Its red flesh is not only luscious but also crisp and firm. There are very few tiny, black seeds that mottle the dark red flesh. The fruit size is normally 18-20 cm (7-8 inches) wide and 4-5 kg (8-10 pounds). In terms of Brix measurement, sugar baby has a very high score, approximately 10.2.
