A classic, legendary, and exceptionally sweet early watermelon variety, perfectly suited for successful cultivation in Latvia's variable summer conditions. Sugar Baby is one of the most popular and reliable varieties worldwide, distinguished by its rapid ripening time and excellent resistance to cooler weather. Its fruits are small, compact, and perfectly round, with characteristic dark green skin and bright red, crisp, and distinctly honey-sweet flesh. The 1-gram package from the Toraf brand offers gardeners a great quantity of seeds at a very friendly price.
🍉 Suitable for:
  • Growing in Latvian home gardens: Thanks to its early maturity, this variety manages to fully ripen and develop maximum sweetness even during shorter and cooler Latvian summers.
  • Small areas and greenhouses: The plant forms relatively more compact vines than large-fruited varieties, making it ideal for small garden beds, greenhouse corners, or plastic tunnels.
  • Children and family enjoyment: The small, convenient "portion-sized" watermelons are ideal for immediate consumption – no need to worry about storing a huge fruit in the refrigerator.
  • Eco-gardening enthusiasts: High natural resistance to diseases allows this variety to be easily grown without aggressive chemical protection.
Main advantages:
  • Exceptionally short vegetation period: This variety begins to yield very early, providing ripe and juicy fruits in the latter half of summer.
  • Honey-sweet and expressive sweetness: Sugar Baby fully lives up to its name – its bright red flesh contains a very high sugar content, has almost no fibers, and has relatively few small, dark seeds.
  • Compact and convenient fruits: Watermelons are perfectly round, weighing an average of 3–5 kg, which is an ideal size for home use.
  • Durable, dark rind: The smooth, distinctly dark green (almost black) rind perfectly absorbs solar heat, which accelerates fruit ripening, and protects it from cracking during heavy rains.
  • Economical 1g packaging: Toraf seeds are known for their high germination rate and purity, providing enough seedlings to supply the whole family and neighbors with watermelons.

⚙️ Cultivation instructions and recommendations:
  • Seedling preparation: Sow seeds in individual pots (e.g., 11x11 cm seedling pots) in late April or the first half of May at a depth of approximately 1.5–2 cm. For quick germination, ensure constant warmth (+22°C to +25°C) and a well-lit windowsill.
  • Planting in the garden: Transplant young seedlings outdoors or in a greenhouse in late May or early June, when the risk of spring frosts has completely passed. Planting distance – approximately 80–100 cm between plants.
  • Location selection: Choose the sunniest, warmest, and most wind-protected location. Excellent results can be achieved by planting watermelons on black agro-film, which additionally warms the soil in spring.
  • Watering and care: Water regularly with warm water at the beginning of growth and flowering. Once the fruits have formed and begin to ripen, reduce watering to make the watermelons sweeter and prevent cracking.

📦 Storage:
Store seeds in a dry, cool, and dark place until sowing, in their original and tightly sealed Toraf packaging. Protect from moisture and direct sunlight.
