People say that watermelons are divided into male and female, so will watermelon seeds sprout if they are male?

Last Updated: 2024/11/08, Watermelon does not distinguish between male and female, if the variety degradation is not considered, the watermelon seeds can be used as seeds! With regard to the problem of male and female watermelons, I am afraid it is also a folk saying that the so-called watermelon belly button is the female watermelon, while the small one is Gongxi.

Watermelon regardless of male and female, such as regardless of variety degradation, the watermelon seeds can be used as seeds!

About watermelon male and female problem, I am afraid it is also a folk saying, the so-called watermelon "navel" big is female watermelon, and small is male watermelon. In fact, this statement is groundless, watermelon belongs to dioecious monoecious plants, so no matter what kind of watermelon, but also by the female flower fertilized after development, that is to say, no matter what kind of watermelon, as long as the female flower may be fertilized fruit.

Whether watermelon seeds can germinate as seeds is largely related to the degree of seed development. Many watermelon seeds are difficult to germinate due to insufficient maturity. However, watermelon seeds are not recommended as seeds even if they germinate.

If you pay attention, you will find that watermelon seeds on the market are basically hybrids! For hybrids, once the seed is retained, variety degradation will occur, and I have explained this problem many times. If you know the seed production technology, you can keep seeds, and purify the breeding parents from generation to generation to make hybrid seeds, but if you don't know these words, it is not recommended to keep seeds.

In addition, regarding seedless watermelon, although the name is seedless watermelon, we can still see immature seeds, although few but still have, this kind of seeds certainly do not have the ability to be seeds, germination ability does not have. (Seedless watermelons are propagated from the seeds of diploid watermelons and tetraploid watermelons.)

Here is science rejuvenates agriculture, welcome to add attention, take you to grow knowledge together.
