Abstract: According to present situation of sand watermelon production, the purpose of this study is to improve plant disease resistance and yield. The authors measured the effect of spraying treatments on growth and physiological indexes of watermelon seedlings by using 4 chemical medicaments (Duoning copper sulfate calcium, Meianqi captan, Aigennuo additives, PCNB). The results showed that: after chemical treatments, Aigennuo additives had the best performance with increasing chlorophyll content, root activity and promoting seedling growth. Based on the effects of nutrition and physiological indexes of watermelon, we made a conclusion that the 4 medicaments were in favor of watermelon seedling cultivation and could effectively reduce the spread of fusarium wilt.
