Cutting My Sugar Baby Watermelon

hello welcome to life with Miss D I'm in my backyard and I wanted to show you my sugar baby watermelon and I think it's ready I think that I have never grown watermelon before but um it's just experimenting and let me just inspect it really good and see knocking on it tapping on it rolling it over but it's still on the vine you see it's on the line there trying to decide if I wanna go ahead and try it now wait but I think it's ready I think I think it's ready I just don't know so uh as you can see this is the biggest one I'd have one over there in the corner there I also have so I got a little one right here and then I got one little one right there and another one right there about the size of a almost the size of a bowling ball not quite the one that I'm cutting is about the size of a bowling ball that's the size of a bowling ball so it's August today it's August the 6th and I'm just wondering I wonder if I should I wonder if I should just give it another week what should I do I just I don't want it to ride I don't but it looks it's hard it's firm it looks good I don't know what y'all think you think I should cut them sugar baby watermelon I'm trying to decide I really don't know how big they get but I don't think the sugar baby watermelon gets too big it's probably as big as it's gonna get but hmm what should I do somebody put some comments in there if you've had the sugar baby watermelon let me know is it time to cut it how big do they get what do I need to do we had rain today I think we had rain yesterday and I worry about it being in the you know just sit down here I kind of worry about it but as you can tell you see it's still on the vine it's still on the vine it's firm and hard it feels nice it feels good it's not soggy anywhere or soft anywhere so I'm just trying to decide oh yeah uh it's a little muddy out here because it rained today there's a bell pepper and I've noticed my bell peppers just they just aren't getting big like I had hoped real small there's one one they're pretty small and uh I have a few bell peppers over here and they're small too I might need to get this one before something else gets it my hands a little dirty because I've been messing with that watermelon oh I'm gonna have cantaloupe soon over here last time I did cantaloupe last year my cantaloupe wasn't sweet it had a really soft buttery texture but it just wasn't sweet so it may be the seeds that I had still got tomatoes growing still got okra I clipped okra yesterday I cut some yesterday because you know okra grows really fast there's one right there so I'm out in the backyard and trying to decide if I should cut that watermelon or not just don't really know um what else that's it that's all I really have growing just some flowers but I'm just curious about that watermelon very curious about the watermelon okay so put it in the comments if you've had sugar baby watermelon is that a sweet watermelon I started about watermelon in the grocery
