Hi SG, I've bought 3 packets of seed-less watermelon seeds, and they were all EMPTY! :-)
The red papaya seeds should grow tho. Usually, the pale coloured seeds are the males, and the dark ones the females.

Hey fellas will a babaco make a good female parent at all, have pollinated its flowers with pollen from other varieties but they are still too green to see if any seed has developed

Yes Phil, if a babaco is close to another carica say mountain papaya there will be seeds inside the fruit. Dont know if they would be viable though because babaco itself is a natural hybrid!
