Picking a Watermelon

Picking a watermelon has always been a tough one. Here are some tips for making it much easier!

• The darker the watermelon, the riper the watermelon
• The stem should be dark but not green. A green stem means it's not ripe.
• Knock on it! If it sounds hollow, it's a ripe watermelon!
• Bee stings! I have a niece who says the more bee stings, the more ripe the watermelon.
