Find The Field Spot

There is a spot on the watermelon where it was on the ground. This spot is called a field spot. This spot will be more yellow, while the rest of the watermelon will be green. If there is a dark yellow field spot, it is better because it means that the watermelon was on the vine for a longer time, and it had time to open properly.
