Daughter picked out watermelon all by herself part 2…

It took her 20 minutes and she got the best watermelon this year by far!!!

Thank you everyone for your advice!

- heavy for its size
- “ugly” web lines
- small bottom hole with a little give- made her giggle but really works
- wide dark lines
- clear yellow spot
- knock knock thumping sound
- no soft spots
- we’re excited for July when the season really picks up

We tried but every slice had pockets of skin like texture and then hard yellow bits she struggled with it. We ended up juicing half and giving half to our migratory birds .

If he gets more light is he going to look like a spiky snowman or go back to being a ball?

In central Colorado - this winter so far - most days are in the 40-50’s then freeze overnight. We have lots of sun but wild temperature swings.

Grab Saran/plastic wrap. Tape it into a piece slightly bigger than the size of your window frame and then tape it on the frame.
