The fruits do not have internal cavities, indicating high quality and flesh density. The hybrid responds well to increased agronomic practices, allowing maximum yields under optimal growing conditions.
The rind thickness of watermelon Nelson F1 is optimal for long-term transportation and storage without loss of flavor or commercial quality. This variety adapts well to various environmental conditions, is resistant to diseases, and does not cause transportation issues. It is primarily grown in open ground, making it a universal and reliable choice for farmers and gardeners.
