Quick and Easy - Removing Watermelon Seeds

If done the right way, a watermelon can be seed fairly quickly. Follow the detailed steps to seeding a watermelon below.

Slice the watermelon into quarters. Cut each quarter in half again.
Locate the row of seeds in the wedge of the watermelon. Cut a diagonal slice just above the seed line on both sides. Cutting along the seed line will create a seedless wedge of flesh that can be removed and cubed.
After removing the seedless wedge of watermelon, cut along the bottom of the seed line on both sides of the watermelon. Remove the flesh that is full of seeds.
Remove the remaining seeds with the tip of a utility knife or a spoon. Once the seeds are removed, the watermelon can be sliced, balled, or cubed.
