This image was shared by a farmer comparing watermelon fruit from the same field. The larger watermelon shown was grown using Green World Nutriplant Plus Fertilizer, while the smaller fruits beside it were grown without it.
Crop & Growth Context
Crop: Watermelon
Production: Open-field
Stage: Pre-harvest fruit development
All fruit was grown under similar conditions, making size and development differences clearly visible.
What We’re Seeing
The watermelon treated with Green World shows a noticeable increase in overall size and weight compared to the untreated fruit next to it. The shape is well formed, with good skin colour and uniform development. This indicates consistent nutrient uptake during key fruit-filling stages.
In contrast, the smaller watermelons show limited expansion, which often points to stress or restricted nutrient availability during critical growth periods.
How Green World Was Used
Green World Fertilizer was applied as part of a foliar feeding programme, following recommended dilution rates and timing. Applications were done during cooler parts of the day to maximise absorption and reduce plant stress.
Why This Matters for Farmers
In watermelon production, fruit size directly affects yield, market value, and profitability. Poor nutrient uptake during fruit set and bulking can result in smaller fruit and reduced returns. Supporting the plant during these stages helps improve fruit fill, consistency, and final harvest weight.
Closing
We appreciate farmers who share real, side-by-side field results. This comparison highlights how correct nutritional support can influence fruit development in a measurable way. When used properly, Green World Fertilizer helps crops reach their potential as part of good overall farm management.
