  • If the field spot is creamy yellow in color, then it means that it is a ripe watermelon.
  • If its white in color, then it indicates that watermelon is picked before time.

Go for uniform (shaped) watermelons

  • Avoid choosing those watermelons which have cuts/bruises/dents.
  • Bumped watermelons should not be eaten, as it shows that watermelon might be overexposed to the sunshine in its growing period, which is unhealthy and won’t have the desired nutrients.
