Principles for determining cultivation density of watermelon

The planting density of watermelon is directly related to the fruit yield of watermelon. If the number of watermelons planted per unit area increases within a certain range, the number and yield of watermelons will also increase. On the contrary, if the number of watermelons per unit area is reduced, the resulting number and total yield will decrease. The reasonable cultivation density of watermelon should be comprehensively considered according to local climatic conditions, growth strength of varieties, soil fertility, pruning methods, cultivation management level and so on.
