I planted watermelon (from starter plant) in early May. The plant has many blossums and is covering a 3x8 foot area of the garden. I HAVE NO FRUIT. Am I being inpatient or do I need to wait for a while. The plant looks very green and healthy. What's going on???
The female (larger) flowers will turn into fruit. You should start to see something like a small fruit at the base of the flower... if the insects are pollinating it for you.
Watermelons need a lot of nutrients. They love manure, compost, any organic fertilizer.
You probably just need to wait longer. Feed the watermelons as said in the mean time for more fruit later.
It's fine. Maybe a little late, but still fine. Make sure you give it lots of water.
