Why people put rock on watermelons

 Why do people have to put a rock on top of a watermelon?🤨🤨🤨

1. Placing a rock or other weight on top of a watermelon can be a traditional method used to help the watermelon grow evenly and maintain its round shape. By adding weight, the idea is that the melon might adjust its growth pattern and avoid developing an uneven shape. 


2. Some believe that applying weight can make the fruit more succulent, though this is more anecdotal and not scientifically proven.


3. Putting a rock on top of a watermelon is a folk belief that suggests it helps the fruit ripen more evenly by applying gentle pressure, but there's no scientific evidence to support this practice. It's likely more of a tradition or old wives' tale than anything else.


4. The rock is a good conductor of heat and absorb heat from watermelon during night and avoids watermelons from cracking.
