Taproot

Watermelons feature a highly branching tap root extending up to 1 m deep into the soil. Some 15, occasionally more, lateral roots run from the main root. These, in turn, branch into smaller roots, resulting in an extensive root system which normally threads 7-10 m3 of soil 15 to 30 cm deep in the topsoil.
