JO> Many watermelons from supermarkets here taste either too much
    like rind or are mushy inside.  I prefer the ones my parents grow
    hydroponically.  My father places in molding forms so they'll
    turn out square (They fits better in the refrigerator and are
    less prone to roll off the counter).
CM> Wow--where did your father get the molding forms, or did he
    improvise them?
He usually makes his own molds, but for the watermelons he just
constructed some plexiglass boxes whose sides are held held
together with glue clamps (like long c-clamps).
