I am new to gardening so any advice is welcome with open arms! So just last week I dropped some seeds from a store brought watermelon in some soil and BOOM! It sprung up fast looks pretty healthy to me! What do you guys think? Also not sure what type of watermelon it is to add it on here, anyone know or tried this project before? Pretty exciting lol
