The invention belongs to the field of
seedling growing technologies for watermelons, and particularly discloses a
seedling growing method for enhancing the
sweetness of watermelons. The particular
seedling growing method includes (1), treating watermelon seeds; (2),
sowing the seeds and then carrying out seedling growing management. The seedling growing method has the advantages that the
cell metabolic capacity of the seeds can be effectively improved, the seedling emergence rate can be obviously increased, growth and development of watermelon seedlings can be accelerated, the
disease resistance and the
drought resistance of the watermelon seedlings can be effectively enhanced, and the seedling growing method is favorable for cultivating strong seedlings; supplemental lighting treatment is carried out in seedling growing periods,
nutrient solution is applied to roots in the seedling growing periods, small environments favorable for growth of the watermelon seedlings can be created, accordingly,
chlorophyll a and the total contents of
chlorophyll can be effectively increased, and the
photosynthetic capacity can be enhanced; the watermelon seedlings have sufficiently robust functional leaves without damage due to diseases and
insect pests, transverse growth of stems of the seedlings and
biomass accumulation can be promoted, the robustness of the seedlings can be improved, the
nutrient absorption and utilization capacity of transplanted seedlings can be effectively enhanced, synthesis of
nutrient substances can be promoted, and accordingly the watermelons are high in organic nutrient accumulation, yield and
sugar content.
