Watermelon

Crimson Sweet Watermelon is the standard watermelon variety grown in Turkey. The fruits are round to oval in shape, with a light green rind covered in dark green stripes. They typically weigh between 5 and 10 kg and are durable for transport and storage. Crimson Sweet is a seeded variety and is well known for its very high sugar content, making it one of the most popular and flavorful watermelons on the market.

Siyah İnci Watermelon is a mid-early variety that has become increasingly popular in recent years due to rising market demand. Its key features include being seedless, having a very high sugar content, and offering a long shelf life, making it ideal for both fresh consumption and commercial distribution. The rind is very dark green and unstriped, while the flesh is deep crimson red. Siyah İnci watermelons are also known for their high yield, excellent fruit quality, and strong resistance to sunburn, making them a reliable and desirable variety for growers.

Mini Şeker Watermelon is a developing watermelon variety that has quickly adapted to meet the diverse demands of the export market. As the name suggests, its most distinctive feature is its small size, with fruits typically weighing between 1.5 and 4 kg. The shape is slightly round to oval, the rind is light green with striped “pajama-like” patterns, and the flesh has a classic watermelon flavor with a sugar content of 10° Brix or higher. Thanks to its compact size, excellent taste, and suitability for export, Mini Şeker is becoming an increasingly popular choice for both growers and consumers.
