Does a watermelon need the same amount of watering that a giant pumpkin needs? Any advise would be appreciated.

Yes they do, Make sure they get water around noon also or they will get a hollow place in the middle. The plants are smaller so they need less water than AGs. I would say 5 gal a day on main. sometimes more if weather is hot and dry.I watered mine everyday unless it rained.

I am having a hard time even thinking about growing watermelons with it -15 outside and a -40 wind chill.

I hope spring isn't too far away.
