I didn’t think I would ever grow watermelons, but I got offered
some seed from a follower on Instagram, so I grew a couple of plants.
Petal had to hand pollinate them as with so much bushfire smoke about,
we had no bees in the yard.
To cut a long story short, we ended up with five melons, which averaged 2.5kg or better. Inside they were a pinkish colour, rather than a nice red we were expecting. Considering they were a little under done, they tasted alright and we devoured three of them, but reneged and gave the last two away.
