I'm in So Cal and get his watermelons from Winco every year! I tell everyone when I'm shopping to ONLY buy the ones with the face on the sticker! I've never been disappointed. I even emailed him years ago to verify that he was a real person! He answered and thanked me! Sweet guy!
Wow that watermelon was beautiful. It looked frosty inside and perfectly ripe the rattlesnake melons are my favorite. I can imagine how great it tastes. It was cool to see them on the vine. Also I didn't know the watermelon originated in Africa. That's very interesting. I am in Va. I would love to purchase one of your beautiful watermelons. I hope you sell to Wal-Mart. I will look for your picture. I love how you put your picture on the watermelons. That shows pride in your obviously quality watermelons. Keep up the good work. I loved it when you said you are thankful everyday. Jesus has blessed you. I appreciate you and hope to taste one of those delicious watermelons soon.
I have never had a truly tasty seedless watermelon. The round ones sold at walmart and costco are tasteless. In my youth, the only melon in the stores were "Black Diamond" melons. Solid dark green and so sweet the sugar would crystalize inside. Used to get yellow meat watermelons when stationed in san antonio in the 80's. Dark green on the outside and a yellowish orange inside. The sweetest ive ever had.
Love this story. We have deep roots there. Our family name is Aguirre and have a road in Balmorhea. I would like to visit this farm and try a watermelon.
Hell when I was young living in McCamey Texas the one thing we loved in the summer was swimming in the Balmorhea spring feed pool and the Pecos cantaloupe and Watermelon.
Finally saw & bought a giant Luke Brown #4349🍉watermelon again @ HEB The first time I tried them, I bought 3 in season. Luke's watermelons are Sweet, ripe & perfect. Thanx Luke & HEB Youre the BEST. Ive also eaten Black Diamond from the Pan Handle. None can beat Texas watermelons🍉Keep up the good work👍🏽
I know this is an older video but my husband just brought home one of his watermelons ( with the picture sticker still on it!) from HEB and so I looked him up! About to cut into it and find out just how good his watermelons are! August is HOT in Texas. Watermelons are one of the perfect cool down fruits! 🍉🍉
You look for a little curly q thing and if it's brown the watermelon is ripe and the watermelon Should have deep ridges and a little bit of a yellow-bellied where it said on the ground. A lot of watermelon Growers pull those melons before they get ripe enough so they'll last through shipment and that's why they're not as good as when you can wait until they're really ripe in the field omigosh there's only about maybe I don't know a fourth to a third of an inch of green around the edges and the red and oh so delicious
Watermelon ... my most favorite and it won't belong before it will be that time of year. The only down side is trying to find one where I live (north of Memphis), that's ripe. I know what to look for, but still hard to find good watermelon around here! At least keep my fingers crossed and know to look for Luke's sticker.
I grew up on a watermelon farm and my daddy showed me the dirt and he showed me how loose it was and it was Sandy and he said watermelon like Sandyland. Of course they need water to. So if you've got a sandy soil and kind of a dry desert like area and you irrigate then it seems like it would be ideal
Want to say,,, been watching these blog's all day... So refreshing to be able to say, Huell Howser would be proud. ( If you don't know him, Google California gold. Or Huell Howser) then you too might be up half the night making roadtrip plans for your Harley rides. As I am... Problem here is, might need a motorhome like yours. Actually I have one in Fla. Strange enough, it was made here in Texas, Nacadoshos, ( sure it's misspelled). But it's called, Foretravle. Best motorhomes in the country. ( Maybe a future show idea) mines an 84, & it's fantastic. They are bar none, the best. North of Houston area. Thanks for doing great shows. Hope this Covid things stays away from your family. Kevin
When I was a kid do used to be able to buy watermelon‘s that size everywhere no I won’t say that size but clothes now all you get are these little round ones and maybe that’s because they’re seedless but I’d love to have seeds from those bigger watermelons?
I haul oil pipe it was an adventure going out pass Lin Texas. Amazing is all them large TX watermelon growing in the dessert. One Saturday after a hurricane passed. I was south on Hwy.16 early I was a Black Thunderbird. Over 4ft. tall it hop across the 2 lane road. I had 80,000 pounds load and I slow down. his nick was as long as my arm. The bird wing reach both side of the road. It hop off the road, to eat some road kill. This was before cell phone.
I'm from El Paso. Do you sell watermelons to the public, or are they only available in stores? I don't recall seeing any of your watermelons sold in our local stores. I would not mind taking a drive out to Balmorrhea with family to buy some.
ship some to norther Wisconsin and Gods Courtney the UP of Michigan.... we don't get real good water melon here, Marinette Wisconsin and Menominee Michigan
At 24 / 25 married and on his own with a business I'd call him a young man not a kid ... I know some young people that are way more mature than some older people.
We live on the West Coast how far does your watermelons sell at market we live in a town called Bandon Oregon we have Fred Meyer’s Safeway’s and Wal Mart do you by any chance supply any of these places we would love to try your watermelon we just have to find a place that sells it so that we can buy it
I do not like seedless I want seeded watermelon haven't had a good watermelon since my father died in 1971. He grew Charleston Gray they were a very light green melon. Striped watermelons were just starting to be a little bit popular and he was interested in them
so far all the texas watermelons that i have gotten for the past couple of years have not been good at all, not sweet and feels like u bitting into a sponge, i need to try one of those luke brown watermelons.
Went to Balmorhea and met Luke. Very nice man. He is running a great business.
I live in Alberta canada and have no reason loving this show, but I do dang it, i really do!!!

Your product is THE best...thank for enriching our summer with the most delicious watermelon.

Bought one of your melons at HEB, it was great. Thank you, keep it up. Morris
Go get 'em, Luke. I'll be looking for your melons in Mississippi.
We use to make a hole on top off one and stick a bottle of everclear in it, let it drain tell it was all gone, then enjoyed a big slice🔥💯

Love this story. We have deep roots there. Our family name is Aguirre and have a road in Balmorhea. I would like to visit this farm and try a watermelon.
I started eating watermelons June 28th and I’ve eaten over 20! I had one of these it was one of the better storebought ones
Had a few of his melons they sell them here at our local H.E.B. good melons!
Always wondered who the kid was and now I know!
Hell when I was young living in McCamey Texas the one thing we loved in the summer was swimming in the Balmorhea spring feed pool and the Pecos cantaloupe and Watermelon.
I’m from Big Spring Texas. My family would drive to Balmorhea to swim in that beautiful natural spring pool. Wow! What memories!
Success is always bro, greetings from Indonesian farmers

Shout out to all the MEXICANS working the land - let's be real now. (See 3:29)
This is the real treasure
I can taste it now😊
Best way to tell if a watermelon is ripe is look at the stem going into the watermelon. If it is brown you have a ripe one.
Lmao the tinder comment 😂
Where can i get some seeds from this variety of watermelon please please please
Looks they are growing on the sand
Please tel me this watermelon seed name???
I have not had Watermelon in years! SHE moved and did not leave her new number.
Wow I like watermelon
God Bless America!
Great Story, best part when is when Luke talked about passing on Values to the next Generations. Salt of the Earth...

Howmuch you pay Jose to pick?
I'm trying my hand at watermelon this year. Just planted last weekend and I'm excited. Now how the hell did a kid get 800 Acer's.
At 24 / 25 married and on his own with a business I'd call him a young man not a kid ... I know some young people that are way more mature than some older people.
@@allenwilson9656 Umm it said he started at 14. I would call that a kid.
@Marco A LOL that does help.
@Marco A I even capitalized the A.
80s MX PRO lands out in trans Pecos can be cheap, but I assume he inherited the land
Nice...
