Do you like eating watermelons? Now there are more and more new varieties of watermelons in the open field, and there are many different watermelons on the market. Before, there were golden watermelons in two colors, and now there are carrots and watermelons.

Carrot watermelon, the reason for this name, because the flesh color is orange, watermelon pulp contains up to 20 times carotene, so it is called carrot watermelon. This kind is planted in Weifang, Shandong Province.

Melon farmer Wei Ruixiang has grown watermelons for more than 20 years, and this year he has been recommended to plant 100 mu of orange-stuffed watermelons. The pollination method of this kind of watermelon must be pollinated by bees, so when you plant this kind of watermelon, you also have bees to pollinate, otherwise, this kind of watermelon will grow differently. In addition to bee pollination, it also records the growth date of watermelons with different color cards to ensure that no melons are picked in 45 days.

Such a special watermelon, after many netizens saw it, they thought it was genetically modified watermelon. Another netizen said: "for the sake of health, it is not recommended to make these genetically modified products. If you want carotene, eat carrots. If you want to eat watermelons, eat watermelons."

In fact, this kind of watermelon is a hybrid variety of watermelon, which is not harmful to the human body. Its yield is relatively high, and it can produce seven or eight thousand jin of watermelons per mu. This kind of melon contains 20 times more carotene than ordinary melons, and the price is as high as 7 yuan per jin. It is possible to become a new variety of watermelon.

Have you ever known this kind of carrot watermelon before? Its taste is a bit the same as that of cantaloupe, the flesh melts in the mouth, and the taste is sweet. It is a fruit worth tasting!
