Here’s how to pick a perfectly ripe watermelon:
1.*Check the Sugar Spot* – A small, dry, slightly sunken sugar spot indicates ripeness. Avoid large or moist spots.
2.*Look for Uniform Color* – A deep green rind with consistent coloring is best.
3.*Feel the Weight* – A ripe watermelon should feel heavy for its size.
4.*Tap for a Hollow Sound* – A deep, hollow sound signals ripeness, while a dull sound suggests it’s underripe.
5.*Check the Field Spot* – A yellowish spot means it’s ripe; white or green indicates it’s not ready.
6.*Inspect the Rind* – A smooth, unblemished rind suggests freshness,
while deep cuts or soft spots may indicate spoilage. Use these tips to enjoy a sweet, juicy watermelon every time!
