Hello, how are you all I am looking for the wateness of melon that I have harvested a few days ago, since they gave me these seeds but they did not tell me what the variety was ... It is a large melon (about 6kg-7kg and measures 25cm in diameter) of dark green when it is immature and when ripe it turns yellow with some stretch marks and characteristic dices. It has small streaks of orange color. Its interior is orange, it is soft and creamy. Do you know what variety it is?

At a guess it looks like 'Escondido Gold' but it might depend on which country you live in or where you got the seeds. Where do you live?

I can't tell you then. It could be an American variety but I have little knowledge of varieties local to your country.
