There is an opinion that “girl” watermelons are tastier and have fewer seeds.
It is not difficult to recognize a "girl" watermelon. Such a watermelon has a rounder shape and more blurred stripes.
You should also look at the “navel” (the place where the flower was): in “girl” watermelons it is larger.
However, you need to pay attention not only to the “gender” of the watermelon.
How to choose a tasty watermelon
First, the stem should be dry. This is a sign that the fruit has ripened in the garden.
Another sign that the watermelon has ripened in the garden is a yellow side.
In addition, you need to pay attention to the sound the watermelon makes when you tap it.
The watermelon should sound ringing. This means that the flesh is ripe.
