Hello all,
My daughter loves watermelon, so I planted three jiffy pellets with some Sugar Baby seeds. They took a long bit to germinate, but I think that is normal.

My question has to do with the fact that the first leaves on two of the three are yellow (oh, and there are no regular leaves yet). Is that normal? Due to cooler nights, I put these seedlings in full sun during the day and then bring them inside at night.

Hi Unmutual,
Thanks very much for your response about my watermelon seedlings. They seem to be very gradually turning green instead of yellow. I don't know what a watermelon seedling should look like (I've never planted one before).

The leaves are not crinkly, so I don't think it is a manganese issue. I do appreciate the research you did. I will watch them carefully. If things don't improve, I think I will take them to our cooperative extension. I recently learned that you can take plants there and they will identify what is wrong with them.
