Why don't watermelons grow on trees?

Answer 1

too cold and not enough sun. you can grow it in a greenhouse but it costs too much Because the watermelon is a fruit that lays directly on the ground. If the ground is too wet or has poor drainage, the skin on the watermelon will begin to deteriorate and it will rot. The outside of watermelons, cantaloupes, peppers tomatoes and even lettuce has to have a dry outside surface for the water to evaporate properly through the surface. If it remains too wet, cell destruction will occur and bacteria now have access to the inner fruit.

Answer 2

Watermelons are so large and heavy, they would drop from the tree before they reached maturity. They grow from ground vines, which work very well for the melons.
