A WHOLE WATERMELON - My longest time lapse ever!

This video shows you how long it takes for a whole uncut watermelon to completely decompose. This is my longest time lapse so far, even longer than my previous record holder, the potato time lapse.

awesome and beautiful. so, if I forgot about my watermelon and it turns into a rotten mess, I should just let it go for another 200 days until it completely dries and peels itself away, making for a squeaky-clean clean up? Did the bacteria digesting the watermelon produce so much acid that it actually stripped away the white lining of the container??

as someone who works in a grocery store and has to handle rotting melons that break open, I can only imagine how the smell must have been

[@arnoarno1092]

I was literally about to make this exact comment. Word for word. More than once I’ve gone to pick up a watermelon while stocking and had my hand go completely through the melon only to be hit by that rotten melon smell. Worst smell I’ve encountered while working a produce section has got to be Brussels sprouts that were sitting in a tub of water for two weeks. People kept pouring boxes on top without rotating anything. Just below the surface of the sprouts was hands down the worst smell I’ve ever smelled and it just got worse as it got deeper. Rotting dead bodies piled high in a sewer filled with ammonia. I can’t describe it any other way and I still feel like I’m underselling it.

[@Itzagr0]

Worst smell in produce hands down had a bad batch drop its guts in the chiller room it smelt like rotten watermelon for 2 days even through a deep clean Asparagus gets pretty bad aswell when not rotated or overstocked and left for too long

[@laurelcook9078]

So fun fact: The rinds on melons and gourds are so good at preserving the fruit that you have the terms “summer squash” and “winter squash.” Summer squash means you can eat it at any time during the summer and it will still be good, but it has a thinner rind so it will go bad sooner. Winter squash refers to when people had root cellars and would store their harvest in there. You harvest winter squash in the summer but if you store them in a dark, cool environment you can enjoy them well into the winter. These have super thick rinds. I don’t know when watermelon starts decomposing on the inside, but basically you’ll know if you take a bite and you want to spit it out. (Note: small children don’t have this learned behavior, please taste the juice or fruit first before giving it to a small child as they lack the experience to avoid rotten food.)

I was thinking the watermelon was GMO and very unnatural, thanks for clearing that up. Although that still does seam like a long time.

[@freshgarbage1492]

@@lindasano1552 Genetically modified fruit and crops can be incredibly natural. All GMO means is that it has been selectively bred for desirable qualities. Lemons are an entirely man-made species, therfore every lemon is GMO. Same with modern corn, it was bred to be big whereas ancient corn was small. Stop spreading misinformation that "GMO" means unnatural, that's a hoax by health nuts in order to sell expensive food and shady medicine.

[@lindasano1552]

@@freshgarbage1492 Bro, it's literally called Genetically modified organisam, it is not natural. There is something to be said about natural selection but such has limits, to go beyond those limits is unnatural, if the plant cannot reproduce on its own it is unnatural. You can breed different species of the same plants to get the desired results like larger fruit or a higher yield but the plant, much like dog breeds, will still be able to reproduce if it is natural. No most GMOs are not natural, why don't you stop parroting the main stream media.
