To investigate effects of kind of pot for raising of seedling (single plastic pot, double plastic pot, circular peat pot, square peat pot) and planting method of the pot (3/3, 2/3, and 1/3 by the buried degree of pot height) on watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) growth, this research was conducted under plastic film house. Since planting of seedlings, number, area and photosynthesis rate of leaves, plant height and weight were superior in seedling grown in double plastic pot than those grown in the others. In fruit characteristics harvested at 12 weeks after planting, fruit height, diameter and weight were longer in double plastic pot than in the others, also fruit peel thickness and hilum diameter were thicker and shorter. Initial growth of the plant after planting with seedling grown in double plastic pot was superior in method buried the 2/3 degree of the pot height than the other methods.
