My guess would be that its just your particular growing conditions, Sun exposure, watering, that sort of thing. Sometimes 10 lbs is a win! I've had watermelons that got no bigger than a softball but were ripe inside 🤣
My watermelon has 2 tendrils right next to the stem (i know 😢). One is brown half way down and the other is just starting to brown at the tip. Which one do i go off of?
I would probably wait - Better to be super ripe than under ripe. I'd also look for a yellowing of the bottom "white spot" as an indicator. Did you cut it? How did it go?
Awe man that's rough! I bet there are some melons that could cope with Zone 3B, I'll keep an eye out. This year I have 12 different melon varieties growing already and 3 winter melons that I'm going to start soon in the front yard. You can live vicariously, it should be quite the spectacle lol.
My kids and I laughed SO hard at "it just says 'eeeee'" 😂
I grow these from seed every year here in Georgia. They’re easy to care for and taste SOOOOO GOOD!
Anyone else's mouth water when he brought the fork up?😂
Thx for telling me about the tendril!
We picked our first 2 too early, but our 3rd we picked today and she's perfect! There's 8 more in different stages 🥺
"Eeeee~" That's cute.
I grew a 35 pound Georgia rattlesnake watermelon once.
I plant these watermelons in GA they are very sweet
Definitely could have let that one go a couple more weeks. The rind is still thick and the flesh is pale.
It looks like it doesn't it! It tasted perfectly ripe.
My late grandparents grew the Crimson Sweet variety..
best tasting watermelon youll ever eat. never can find it.
It just says "EEEE"
Even the scale is excited!
I planted multiple seeds most grew do I need to pull one of them so they don’t cancel each other out?
Planted Crimson Sweet for the first time this year. Looking forward to the first taste....
Alan Peterson how was it? I’m growing some this year!
I am too. Hopeful they turn out like this.
Mine was pinkish like that really sweet I thought it was under ripe and trashed it tendrils we're brown like 2 week's ago.
In zone 5 b I'd be challenged to grow one. I might try. Was successful with scaly bark last. That's the way we weight the watermelon too lol
year.
I have a question do you Pollunate these?
Thanks I like watermelon please arrange some seeds of big watermelon
“Makes the video a bit more exciting when I might cut my hand off”
Dang XD
Why is my crimson sweet gets riped when it is only about 10lbs? Far from the supposedly 25lbs.

This is my first year growing watermelon. I picked up a small plant at Lowe’s. Any tips of growing? Also how long until production? Thank you..
Sorry I missed your question, hopefully you had some delicious watermelons ✌
Do you have Google on anything
It’s ok, thank you anyways, so I did get some last year, we got one out of seven. The ants got to them somehow! Lol.
@@tinybackyardfoodforest510 Any big difference between this and Charleston gray watermelon??
Not very red. Is that the color it’s supposed to be?
It wasn't super red, totally ripe though.
Envious :) Zone 3b is not the melons favourite weather, lol.

i usually waitttill the stems turn brown
Looks not yet ripe.
Why not just weigh the water melon on the house scale and forget the math... I'm just sayin''.. 😮😮😮
Right! It was an electronic scale, wasn't really working right on the melon.
