planting seeds to grow seedless melons
 
There was some discussion on a radio gardening program about
growing seedless watermelons, in particular, how to start.
Turns out that there are seeds on the market, they cost $1 each,
and have a relatively poor germination rate (about 50%).

Intriguing.

Seeds for seedless watermelons! Something i've never thought about too
much before.
I guess they've got to grow them somehow, but just goes to show how we
take things like this for granted some times. Grafting them would be
an option, but would be an expensive way to do it.
