Learn How To Grow A Square Watermelon

Maurice Chin, a backyard gardener with no formal training in agriculture or horticulture but a keen interest about how things grow and doing things just a bit differently, has released a most unusual gardening book.

"Learn How To Grow A Square Watermelon" is a book that you can give to friends and family with an interest in gardening as an unusual Christmas or birthday gift, or use it yourself to ... well, learn how to grow square watermelons and impress your friends and neighbors.

Japanese farmers have perfected the art of growing square watermelons. However, since a square watermelon can sell for up to $130, they aren’t too keen to reveal their secret processes. The author of "Learn How To Grow A Square Watermelon" did crack the code, however, and was able to successfully grow his own square watermelons. He reveals the secret in this book.

The square watermelon is a novel fruit that can bring an amusing dimension to your growing season. You can use square watermelons to break the ice at parties, get attention in functions, gardening shows, farmer expos, etc., to start a conversation, and to get other creative ideas and projects started. As the author points out, a square watermelon doesn't roll around in your fridge.

This book is an ideal guide for backyard gardeners, roof-top gardeners, community gardens, school gardens projects, 4-H agricultural students, fund-raising projects, farmers with specialty markets in mind, produce pioneers, off-beat gardeners and even as a gift for the person who has everything.

If you're a home gardener, you will learn how to grow this amazing fruit without the high-tech resources and financing required by commercial farms.

If you're more entrepreneurial-minded, you could start a financially rewarding enterprise, selling square watermelons to local niche markets, for serving at parties, end-of–season BBQs, picnics, out-door gatherings, summer functions, social and business events, etc.

As Maurice Chin, the book's author, also points out, square watermelon refreshments in Japan are fast becoming the equivalent of gourmet coffee in North America. This is a great opportunity for pioneering fruit growers and entrepreneurial gardeners to blaze a trail in their local community, no matter where in the world you are located.
