When my watermelons were half-way growing, the trees were attacked by aphids. Soon, they were overcome by it and succumbed as you can see from below image. The leaves were dried up as the result and I had to salvage the fruits. I was hoping that they're mature enough to be picked.
When I was about to picked the watermelons, I stumbled upon this rotting fruit. The culprit must be the aphids since I saw some of them near the openings.
I was relieved to find 4 watermelons were still in good condition. They are not very big in size, only around half kg each.
But I was very pleased to find that 3 of them were mature and sweet! I was a bit surprised that I had two varieties here, the yellow and orange flesh. I saved the seeds for future planting.
