Crimson Sweet is a classic watermelon variety from Starke Ayres, producing large, oval-round fruits with firm, sweet, deep red flesh. It thrives in frost-free areas and performs best when planted in spring, summer, or autumn under full sun or semi-shade. With a germination period of 10–14 days and harvest readiness in 80–90 days, it’s a reliable choice for home gardens and small-scale growers. Seeds are chemically treated (TMTD 50DS – Thiram) and hermetically sealed for safety and freshness. Not intended for food, feed, or processing.
