We picked one of the Sugar Baby watermelons to have for the 4th.
(For the record, it was the 11th melon in two weeks!)
After spending the night in the fridge, it looks frosty.
It was nice and red inside but not as seedy as I had read it would be.
It tasted sweet, juicy and delicious.
I am not sure if I will grow them again.
It took a lot of space and resources to grow just two watermelons.
But it was fun to experiment.
These kind of experiments are fun. Looks yummy!
ReplyDeleteNice pictures...I wish I had the climate you have...our watermelons will be awhile here in Idaho....however we did harvest cukes and broccoli by the 4th of July ...even some strawberries.

No Sunny, you DO NOT want this climate it is hotter than Hades and stressful to all living things.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by.
I just like the summer...90 degrees and plus is great for me but Im sure it gets old too.....I just wish I could be in the garden more than our short season allows....I dont much like the winter but on the positive side I suppose it allows me time to plan next years garden...
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your blog...very nice pictures.
