Late season watermelon
This year my watermelons are thriving late in the season. I
suppose it's the varieties. I've never grown these before. I've got yellow doll and orange sunshine seedless. I highly recommend both. The yellow doll does fine for a pollinator and produces a great melon. I'm in Ohio, zone 5. The quality seems to have diminished in the fall picked melons. It's grainier, and the yellow and orange flesh, respectively is not as bright. I picked when the tendril by the fruit dried up, summer and fall. I think the leaf cover is not as heavy. Any ideas why, and if there's anything I could do differently if I get a long season next year? |
