"Everybody knows ya have to THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP"

Even Alton was in on the thumping, until Produce Man got mad. Thank God for that

[imnotlikeothergirls5]

I know a melon farmer who said to look for "sweet spots" on melons.... basically any large tan lines on the melon means they're going to be sweet.

[imnotlikeothergirls5]

[khesed]

i feel like the clam in those BC comics. "MELONS HAVE INOPERABLE TUMORS!!"

[hayama317]

I noticed something...

Seedless watermelons are more spherical while

watermelsons with seeds are more oval.

[biggajigga721]

I believe that's because of the age of the fruit.

As the watermelon matures, it starts to produce seeds, and it also grows.

[reallyocean]

I always thought that seedless watermelons are lacking in seeds not because they are harvested earlier than seeded watermelons but because they are bred with other seedless watermelons until they become seedless. Kind of a hybrid kind of melon.

[GreenManalichi]

I had a woman tell me a method that flopped...just place a drinking straw ontop of a watermelon...if it spins, its ripe. Well, I did it, the straw rotated, but the melon was NOT ripe...no sweet taste at all.

[hayama317]

yeah... it's best to use the thump method... but make sure you do NOT KNOCK!!!!

[MahBoi3579]

that dog is cute lol

[darkidz24]

haha... the madame is the addictive fan in an episode.

[khesed]

They use the best thespians to play different roles. Says so in the hour-long special in a later season. And she's pretty good.

[AllBusiness14701]

i wonder what old jimmy will think about his melons LOL

[BigStupidFingers]

Eating a mustmellon is simple, cut it in half, scoop out the seeds, and spoon it into your mouth, perfect summer snack!

[ribbonsnrusty]

"sir, put the mango down!"

lmao.

[javakat343]

[opeth2009]

[opeth2009]

musk mellons are quite easy i usally can tell by its smell other melons are much harder.

[hayama317]

Nah... I tried the way that they chose the watermelon. I like the thumping thing WAYYYYY better.
