Watermelon Seedless, Big Tasty Hybrid
Short Description
Handy-sized, but big-flavored, seedless watermelon!
Full Description
Divinely sweet, perfectly textured jewel red flesh, won our summer tasting of over 50 varieties. At 10-12" in diameter and 6-8 lb., this seedless watermelon is the classic "icebox" size, like a smaller but seedless Charleston Gray. Fruit has gray-green outer skin and a firm, crisp, bright red interior. Keeps its superb taste and ripe texture an extra-long time after cutting.

0% Germination
Of the dozens of kinds of melon, pepper, and squash seeds I planted, I had a 100% germination rate- Except this watermelon. The seedless seeds of this watermelon pack (not the different looking pollinator seeds in the pack) didn't not germinate whatsoever. Waste of money!

New to gardening
2 different types of seeds in same packet so, planted equal numbers of each. Got plenty of watermelon through the season both seeded and seedless.

Not seedless
This "seedless" melon is full of big black seeds but the taste is good.

Lots of seeds!
Out of two hills planted I only got one melon and it was oblong in shape kind of like a squash. Definitely NOT seedless. Lots of big black seeds.
Haven't eaten any yet. It's in fridge getting cold.

Poor germination
Only a fourth of them germinated. Those that did only survived a week. Lacked any vigor.

NOT Seedless!
Burpee, if you're going to advertise a product as "seedless" then it should be seedless. There were tons of seeds in these watermelons, absolutely ridiculous.
