“Where do they get the seed to plant seedless watermelon?”

When growing ‘seedless’ watermelon, you start two plants together - one will produce fruit for you, but the other is the one that does the pollinating so you get the fruit. It does not produce any fruit, itself.

‘Seedless’ is kind of a misnomer; there will still be seeds in it, but they are small and white, not big and brown and good for spittin’ contests. ;)

What’s the point of eating watermelon if you can’t spit seeds?
