Watermelon performs well in both grow tents and out in the garden. Indoor plants reach heights of 80–130cm and produce a respectable 450–500g/m² after a flowering period of 7–8 weeks. Employ techniques such as LST to restrict plant growth while boosting productivity. Grown outdoors, plants reach heights of up to 200cm and offer a return of 400–500g/plant ready to harvest in October.
