My watermelons grow under the superior condition of continuous heating days of  summer this year without a sign of the vine crack disease that troubled us for years. 　　Entering in August, not to mention it, they kept further　vigor development to ripen steadily.  When a harvest was gathered, average of their weight recorded full over 15kg.  The best record last year was 16kg, and it was 23kg a year before.  Starting their seedling period, we nurture them carefully throughout the development applying HB-101 by spraying onto plants directly and irrigating soil both on seedling beds and out field. According to a sales person at the nursery company, the standard watermelons weigh 10kg.  The performance of my watermelons sets extraordinary as this kind.  Flesh is densely ripened with excellent flavor and perfect texture.  The color of the cut end reminds fresh “marbled beef” and the reputation of its sweet honey taste completely fascinated us.  We invited friends for a watermelon party on the other day.  They all agreed that I was one of the best watermelon growers!
