Tasting notes and description

Intense watermelon flavour in 1 person sized fruits. When cut open the sweet smell of watermelon fills the air and the taste follows suit. Super juicy, flesh is not overly red in colour but that does not detract from flavour. Fair amount of seeds for such a small fruit but big enough to remove. I will sow these next year despite being an F1. I think it'll be worth a shot! Definitely recommend growing these and they're surprisingly good for long storage too, I harvested mine back in early September, 2 months later is when I first ate one.

Uses

Any uses you'd use water melon for, mine never made it past being sliced as I just ate the whole thing in one go. So good 🤤🍉 I'm looking into recipes for candied watermelon-rind. Once found, tested/made, I'll make sure to add it to recipes.
