1. Look at the grain: the skin of Hami melon is different from other melons, and the surface is covered with a lot of meshes. The more meshes there are, the more light there is, so its sweetness, maturity and water content are higher. Therefore, if you want to choose a sweet cantaloupe, you must look at the lines on it. The more lines, the better the sweetness. You can choose this kind of melon. If there are few reticulates on it, or even some can't see a few reticulates, such melons are not recommended.

2. Weighing: Weigh cantaloupe by hand. You can select several cantaloupes of similar size at the same time and then weigh them separately. On the premise of the same shape and size, the heavier the cantaloupe, the better its maturity, the higher its sweetness and the more its water content. Most of these cantaloupes are sweet. If the head is relatively large and the weight is relatively light, it means that this cantaloupe may not be fully mature, and the sweetness will definitely be low. So choose according to your weight.

3. Smell the fragrance: Hami melon has a strong melon fragrance. If it is a Hami melon with good maturity and high sweetness, then its melon fragrance is very rich, and you can smell it as long as you get closer. This kind of cantaloupe shows that you can choose. But if you don't smell it at close range, it even has a faint taste, which means that this kind of melon is not ripe, and the immature melon will naturally not be sweet.

4. Listen to the sound: If it is a mature cantaloupe, patting its body with your hand will make a dull sound, indicating that it is mature, so the natural sweetness of the mature cantaloupe will be higher. If it sounds particularly brittle, there is even some swaying sound. Then this shows that the natural sweetness of this melon is very low before it reaches maturity.
