Când să opriți udarea pepenilor verzi. Secretul unei recolte dulci și gustoase • Newsweek România

Proper watering techniques are crucial for growing sweet and flavorful watermelons. Excessive moisture at the end of the season can dilute the fruit's sugar content. Gradually reducing watering two to three weeks before harvest helps the plant focus on flavor development. Signs to limit watering include the cessation of visible growth and changes in the color of the fruit's underside. Abruptly stopping watering can stress the plant, especially in high temperatures. Experts recommend infrequent but deep watering to encourage strong root systems.
