Watermelon that is ripe should have a thick rind that doesn’t yield readily when pressure is applied to it. The ones that do tend to be overripe in nature. Aside from that, it should not be possible to cut through it if you scrape it with your fingernail. An unblemished watermelon should have a hard rind that does not bend or crack when squeezed and does not readily scratch.
