According to the University of Illinois website, an uncut watermelon will stay fresh at room temp for about two weeksafter being harvested.
By practical experience, I just cut open a watermelon that has been sitting in my kitchen floor that I purchased two monthsago. I had taken a vacation, and when I came back I had to clean out my refrigerator, and saw it in my kitchen. Curiously, when I opened the watermelon, there was no noticeable interactions from the environment. No decay, elements of nitrogen interaction, it just looked fine. And when opening it, it still was tasty. So, in hope of a good melon, I'll keep it around and refrigerate the remainder that I did not yet finish initially. Perhaps it would have been a better melon two weeks ago?
