Watermelon seeds are typically planted between mid-March and mid-July in Louisiana (and surrounding states), depending on when you’d like to harvest the fruit. Different varieties will take different amounts of time to reach maturity, so be aware of the “Days to Maturity” listed on the seed packet. If you’d like to have multiple harvests in a growing season, you can plant successive batches of seeds through the summer.
