What watermelon picking techniques do you use??
I use yours
I just pick them
luv u
EthanHarry Du ur not first lol
1 minutes watermelon from tkor
As a produce person for 6 years here are some tips. Yellow bellies, shriveled stems, bee marks( skid marks/scarring on the skin) and tiny black holes (rarely occur) but the surrounding flesh is firm. Yellow bellies are a sign that they have enough water/weight. Shriveled stems means it wasn't picked too early and is fully ripe. Bee marks are a sign of sweetness because just like flowers they can smell the sweetness. The tiny black holes I only see a couple of times per year but are the absolute best melons when you see them.
Thanks for the tips I'll keep that in mind when I go to the store has an awsome day😉
@@ttv_M4sked_P4NDA what does it mean for a watermelon to be grown in plastic? we have miles of farmland where i live, so everything is fresh.
I always go by the more bee stings there are the better it is going to be
Great tips! Thank you! 😄
everyone else at the end: **carefully scooping out watermelon and eating it**
calli: *chomp*
I'm mildly concerned that she looked to be enjoying it....
SHE WAS EATING THE RIND!! THAT AINT NORMAL
I've never seen anyone eat the Rhind. Rind? Whatever.
Yucky.
@@amandawarren9839 its rind.
I think Calli needs help
Dad: Are ya winning son?
Son: Yeah I'm just watching two people slap watermelons
"Oh baby, smack dat watermelon. SMACK IT!"
Why? Did you drink a snow globe?
100th like
I fell you dude my mom asks what I'm playing when I'm on RUclips and I say nothing. She says what's that. I say RUclips. She says so you are playing something. XD
Dad: that's my boy!!
Did none of them notice Calli eating the peel at the end when they were all eating? 😂😂😂😂😂 She cracks me up with her goofiness.
I Thought you couldn’t do that
Victoria Hall I just searched it up, and it’s actually okay to eat! :)
Totally ok to do! They used to pickle it in the past.
same-
i was in confusion ;-;
My dogs love the Rhine.
Calli, you're a monster!!!
1) There was no fire
2) who eats a watermelon like that????
Maxim Van Loocke sounded like eating an apple
Right nobody eats the rind like that.
I admire her courage
Yeah I was surprised too that she just bit into the outside of the watermelon at the end 😝
she looked so proud of herself, but also a little disappointed that no-one reacted to it.
So this is why I couldn’t find any watermelons at the store
I think
Yeah me to
Lol
Lmao
Where do u live
The math books warned us about you
Yahya Sindhi hey I’m the one who screamed in the reply section
O
@@thatonehorriblebaker7618 yea
Yahya Sindhi your welcome
They made that joke themselves
Now I really really want watermelon.
Also Cali at the end (sorry if I'm misspelling your name) 😂😂😂😂 you know what you've done 😂😂
"He closes his eyes and picks a watermelon"
"Usually it works"
Me:he usually gets a watermelon 😂 but sometimes he gets a Mango
Sometimes he gets a banana
Sometimes he gets an orange 🍊
Sometimes he gets a pun.
sometimes he misses and we don't get any watermelon :[
Lol!!!
I feel like if the apocalypse happened we need to go to Tkor because they have so much extra food
We can split up between TKOR and Crazy Russian Hacker.
He often tests food/drink gadgets (or gadgicks as he calls them). Of course, you can't test a lemon gadget with only 1 lemon, you have to use at least 5 to be sure it works well......
They only have piles of junk food, you would be diabetic in a week.
@@spcpitts last time i checked watermelons arnt junk food i mean i could be wrong what do i know
We are the math problem you learn in school
I can’t 🤣
How does this have so many likes?
Funny story:
My friend’s dad goes to costco to buy watermelon. He starts slapping them and trying to listen. A lady walks up and asks, “why do you do that?” Her dad goes, “i don’t know, I just see other asian guys doing it.”
Nate and calli have 12 watermelons they buy 17 more how many do they have now?
Kid: easy! 29!!
Me: nope 0 because calli ate them all!!
You did not account for all that Calli can eat.
well, you see to get the true answer you have to divide by 0.
Just in time! for pumpkin season.
... my grandma always said "look for the bee stings and a yellow belly" the yellow belly for "rested" or ripened and the more bee stings it has the sweeter the melon ... I've used her technique for most of my adult years at 52, with great results ...👍😉
Hey I know this sounds weird but can you try boiling eggs with other liquids like milk and juice love your videos!!
COOL
That sounds horrifying
Nate and Calli : *bought a like 30 watermelons from the local grocery store*
Me : "oh no the people from the mathbooks are escaping into the real world"
I feel lile the people in the math problems are probably scps. There's a reason you don't normally see people like that.
True!
0:15 "We are the math problem you learn about in school"
Alright class, Nate has 9 watermelons, Calli has 3 watermelons, what do Nate and Calli have together?
Me: They have a stomach ache and 10 bad watermelons!
WOW 😅😅😅🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
Yep!!!
😂
I was a produce manager at a grocery store for 10 years. Best way to find a ripe watermelon is in order of importance. 1. Dry Stem (Most important) green stem means green watermelon. 2. Push on it and you want a little give if it's hard as a rock it's not ripe and if it gives to much it's over ripe and mushy 3. Thump and you want a nice hollow drum type of sound.
those math problems at school would be like “mark bought 250 watermelons at the store, he gave 35 away, hOw mAnY dOes hE hAve lEft?”
The ones I had trouble with were -
"Mark bought 250 watermelons at the store, he gave 35 pounds of watermelon away and ate two watermelons. What color is Marks hair?"
@@Jimwill01 😂😂🤣🤣
J. Williams bleen
How many what? Bananas? Apples?!!!
@@acijay4016 HUMAN SACRIFICES!!
11:26
Calli is just bitting into it with the green part Awesome.
You mean the rind?
Can't wait to see what this video has in store for us
I dont like u
xD jk
Zero two XD
How dare you
Jk
Ooh that pun
Cali really took one for the team eating the rind at the end!! My Queen! I stan!!
"It ain't much but its honest work"
can i just for a sec say that omg Grace is an absolute queen and needs to be in every video. period.
Others: Eating the red part.
Calli: Eating the rind.
Why?
You mean the rind?
i kinda like the rind...
My mom:
At the Supermarket slapping all the watermelon
Me:
Casually hands her more watermelon to slap
Disclaimer: no watermelons were harmed in the making of this video.
😂🤣😂🤣
Phew I was worried for a second
Y is that everyone favorite thing to say when there’s watermelons in a video
Lies! All lies!
Except all of them
I enjoyed the end of the video everybody eating the watermelon at the end and enjoying themselves and the mic picking up all of the slurping ASMR noises ☺️😂👍🏻😋🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🥄
"it's hard to get a bad watermelon" once I got a watermelon that exploded and started leaking basically watermelon pus
Employee of the local dollar store here. I basically take care of our produce section and cooler/frozen section. Just like a week ago, I had a rotten watermelon explode and leave a massive puddle of very pungent water all over the floor. Wasn't quite as bad as I thought, though the smell was horrid.
I had a watermelon sitting on my table in my kitchen and in the middle of the night it exploded. We thought a pipe burst or something. Walked in to the kitchen and the smell was disgusting! We had watermelon yuck all over everything! Such a sticky gooey mess!
This is amazing! These guys need to test what it takes for a watermelon to explode.
Once my watermelon grew legs and kicked me in the face
Yep.
I'm so glad you guys take the time, effort, and expenditure to test things like this because I have truly wondered about them!! So, THANK YOU!!
If Mark Rober watches TKOR, I bet this would be his favorite video.
This has been my favorite video so far! It was awesome seeing almost the entire old & new team together in one video. If y'all could do more videos with Nate, Calli, Kevin, Grace, and Kennen in one video, that would be super cool!
1:00
Befriend them, caress them, cradle them, kiss them, cuddle them, support them, believe in them.
Watermelon attracts bugs and flies. So make sure next time you guys wrap the watermelon after cutting it. Great video!
Random fact:
The scientific name for a watermelon is ‘Citrullus Lanatus’.
Ok
Thanks 👍
Coolio
Didn't ask tho
Agent Zero but now you know
Bruhbruhbruh the last part killed me, nate was trying so hard not to laugh! 😹😹😹😹😹😹😹
3:39 the watermelon has a face.. IT HAS A FACE
: )
I just now notice that!
I learned how to choose by bee stings and the yellow belly. Now I want watermelon. LOL Thank you for sharing ♥♥♥
Why is callie eating the outside of the watermelon at the end
And no one there even noticed!
I was like "is she biting into the rine?!" I'm glad someone else thought that was off 🤣
I bet the person editing the video was cracking up
I do that all the time, if I'm at someone else's house and I don't know where the compost is, I'll just eat the rind with the melon
I have to have salt when I eat rinds
ASMR watermelon eating. Made me shiver in a bad way 😩
W A T E R M E L O N
11:25 very cool, editors. thank you for increasing the gain during slurp noises
Smile my children your valid and loved
❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤

Free virtual hugs to everyone who reads this comment!💖🐺
Thx
*Yes*
melomelo11 anytime
Thump test for sure! Also the yellow meated watermelons are the best.
My math problem went along the lines of:
"The group bought 7 watermelons. If one watermelon drops to the floor at a rate of 32 feet per second with a gravitational constant of G^2, calculate the force it takes to orbit the sun"
xD
Whaaaa
physics!
Brain.exe has stopped working
My great grandpa raised watermelon for years and the sound test is how we've always done it.
Choosing excellent watermelons is a skill that takes years to master. You can't just learn it overnight, silly. As my grandfather used to say... Be one with the watermelon!
Hollow sound and yellow combined are the best
After eating all that watermelon now you will have to test anti diarrhea meds lol
just that last part was epic!
Look for the “bee stings”. The more there are = sweeter it will be.
What are bee stings?
5:40 it's the shirt for me😌✨
11:25
There is no point of callie cutting open a watermelon if she is just going to eat it like an apple🤣🤣🤣😅😅😂😂
I farmed watermelons for a long time,
After it has been picked and moved around it becomes difficult as the sounds changes, so selection when harvesting is the key.
The stem breakes easier close to the melon when it is ready so a long stem is not a great sign, but not always.
My mom: what kind of cake do you want for your birthday?
Me: *Yes*
I loved that hunger games reference lol!
My mom always told me to look for “sugar” spots that almost look like stretch marks.
3:31 I love how Calli is idly drumming on the watermellons.

yup
i realy enjoy watching you i think you are the best science youtube channel🙃
No one's thinking about the vendors. What will they do if everyone chose away the best ones?
@@a51mj12 Ah the irony of using illiterate incorrectly.
Watermelon Sugar High! 🍉
Now I'm craving for some!
My mom gets the roundest and the most webbing and it is the best!
Calli eating the RIND and the end you're the only person I've ever seen do that willingly
How was she doing that with a straight face?
That had to be so gross!!
@@Mattm182 right it would have to be so bitter!
Great video until that ending part, it literally made me want to smash my phone just from the sound....
The king of watermelons, great video guys.
7:14 that just ruined my day.
I get a watermelon at the store every week for Sunday brunch with my family, I've used the sound test since I was able to pick the melon up, works everytime!
Callie just biting into the watermelon at the end made me very uncomfortable
😒
At the end Calli it's eating the watermelon shell!!! jajaja
What’s wrong with this channels stats
9 views and 28 likes
14 comments when it’s really 3
And how did TKOR leave a comment from 5 days ago???
the video was most likely unlisted for 5 days then they made it public but they commented 5 days before
RUclips go home you're drunk.
Nice call. I've used the sound method for decades - and very rarely does it let me down. Thump, thu-thum-thump.
:0 i'm so earlly
Yes
0:14
Cali: We are the math problem you learn about in school
🤣
Q: Nate and Calli bought 12 watermelons. The question is why?
A: irdk
You guys have a great mom!
Who could have already disliked.
Hmmm
You
Calli is officially a legend for the way she went into beast mode on that watermelon at the end of the video! Easily the best part of the video!
The ASMR at the end is just gross lol
That "I volunteer as tribute" really got me 😂
Ill assume you never seen that graphic that went around during the summer about choosing a watermelon based on its stripes, how far apart they were and how dark or light they are and it all correlating to the flavor? Id love to see you test that theory!
YALL JUST DONT KNOW I REALLY REALLY NEEDED THIS IN MY LIFE THANK YOU‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️
Really enjoyed the TKOR ASMR 🤣🤣...
11:37 I LOVE CALLI!!!!!
9:44 Nate again in this shot
Grant's boys are either going to get sick from eating so much watermelon or get sick of eating so much watermelon 🤣
There's a smiley face on the watermelon 3:35
The ending reminded me of the post credit scene in The Avengers where they're all gathered in the shawarma restaurant.
3:37 hello ms watermelon
Now this is the kind of a science class I would enjoy to be in
Loved this episode! My method has always been Kali's dads method, grab one and go
I always do the tapping technique and pick the ones that don't sound hollow. And it works every time.
im such a big fan
The last shot before the outro made this video for me
Supposedly bee sting spots on the watermelon means it's really sweet. My mom always goes with the third melon as she looks at the melons and she usually gets great watermelons.
Summer's over. Great timing for this video. Lol
Nate and cali have minions now 😂
I lost it at "YOUR SNACK IS READYYYYYYYY!!" and again when Calli eats the watermelon at the end like a cookie 😂
