I want to cultivate Water Melon, and i have already make the ridges, but i have some few questions.
- what spacing should i use, how wide should one by from another?
-do i need to stake it like the cucummber?
-how do i control the weeds when they starts to show up?

Thanks in Anticipation.

I am not going to preach on how lucrative farming water melon or cucumber could be, but I am here to offer u the secrets of great wealth through farming... who said farming does not pay? who said farming is difficult? difficult for those who have no knowledge of the secrets. lectures on watermelon farming have been organised in Lagos, Ibadan and some part of the west and many came out to grab the knowledge, to be frank they have become independent suppliers of the products within their LGA, now I am offering this opportunity to those in Owerri, Aba, PH and enugu who want to get the secrets of watermelon and cucumber farming. lectures Owerri-16/12/2016 Aba- 17/12/2016...
some think that watermelon can only do well in the north, false! it can do well in the east as well... once u know the secrets u are good to go... for those who are impatient and really want to get some good cash within few days I suggest u learn cucumber secret. I shall give u DAT specie that gets u up to 30 cucumber on one vine of cucumber, from ur one plot of land lying waste I can assure u of 300k in 40days with ur startup capital of 25k... interested persons within this zones, Owerri, Aba, PH, Enugu should drop there contacts so we can proceed... participants would have a 40 paged handout for there references after the lectures, 50seeds of watermelon, that is the both specie u shall learn about, first one is good for dry season farming while the second one is good for rainy season farming. 50 seeds of the cucumber specie that has high yield and matures within 40days... whatsapp or call for more inquiry...08068018201. in each of the zones we need only 30persons... fees remain # 5000... payment at arrival. venue: owerri: City chef behind rock view hotel. Aba: Binez hotel. first 10 participants would also get 50 seeds of dwarf pawpaw specie

firstly planting 4seeds per bag is not too bad and not too good unless ur staking would be wounderfuly spaced.. 3seeds per sack is a good idea... but if u insist on 4per bag and u are having 200 bags it means u would be needing 800 seeds... 800 seeds is 20grams and in each 5 grams planted u can be sure of 3 bags... therefore 3 bags multiply 4 equals to 12 bags... plus minus... this could be your first harvest... u could make close to 3harvest depends on your maintenance and type of hybrid seeds... good luck

rabbit urine is urea, and urea can majorly boost the growth of your crop but u need other fertilizer supplements for fruit development.
