My growing season is funky. Short, almost as short as yours, but we tend to be hot for what we have. Sugar Baby generally does well for me, though it doesn't produce as large a watermelon. This year I tried a variety named Kaho Watermelon. We had a funky funky and not very nice growing season, but I just pulled a tiny little melon off of the plant. Its not fully ripe, and since we got a frost last night I have no idea if it'll taste decent at all, but it was pretty much the only melon I grew this year to produce a melon at all. I'm kinda impressed and will have to try them again next year.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11924993310937754220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5526768924178592295.post-32145802195843449392019-10-04T19:47:41.371-07:002019-10-04T19:47:41.371-07:00I do not think I have ever seen a white fleshed wa...I do not think I have ever seen a white fleshed watermelon.
