Watermelon 'Tastigold'

This has the exact coloring of Charleston Gray, only it is a round melon. Flavor was less than exciting. Has small black seeds.

This is an open pollinated melon which is under plant variety protection. It will come true from saved seeds but distribution is illegal....Read More This is one of the sorriest performers that I have tried. It is highly touted for taste. I didn't agree. But the basic problem is splitting in the field. About half of the crop split open before ripening. It is about about 22lbs, round and grey( similar markings to Charleston Grey). There are many better varieties of yellow/orange fleshed melons for my growing conditions.
