Watermelon is a scrambling and trailing vine in
the flowering plant family Cucurbitaceae… There is evidence from seeds in Pharaoh tombs
of watermelon cultivation in Ancient Egypt… Watermelon is grown in favorable climates
from tropical to temperate regions worldwide for its large edible fruit,
which is a berry with a hard
rind and no internal divisions, and is botanically called a pepo… The sweet, juicy flesh is usually deep red to pink,
with many black seeds, although seedless varieties exist… The fruit can be eaten raw or
pickled, and the rind is edible after cooking. It is commonly consumed as a
juice or as an ingredient in mixed beverages…
Considerable breeding effort has developed disease-resistant varieties…
Many cultivars are available that produce mature fruit within
100 days of planting… In 2017, China produced about two-thirds of the world
total of watermelons… Thanks for reading my blogs…
