[*]Place the seeds about 1 inch deep in dirt in a plant pot. Or, you can plant the seeds outside in dirt where they will get a lot of sunshine.

[*]Weed out (remove) the weakest plants.[/list]
You may not grow a watermelon, but you should begin to grow the watermelon vine. If you do grow a watermelon, it might not taste as good as the kind you buy at the grocery. That is because watermelon growers take extra special care of the watermelons they grow.
