To me, this is one of the loveliest commercials ever aired. It always reminds me of my daughter and her friends and I love the song 'Pink Moon' by Nick Drake (rip). Has a great message, imo. Here is a link that might be useful: VW Pink Moon Cabrio Commercial

Galia would have been one of my guesses because you said it had green flesh, and Galia is the best-tasting green-fleshed melon I've ever grown. Galia is a hybrid so, when you save seed, the new generation of plants may not necessarily come true from the saved seed. However, since you got seed that gave you good fruit this year, maybe your luck will continue. Some people have successfully dehybridized hybrids and eventually have been able to stabilize the dehybridized and, at that point, open-pollinated, version after multiple generations. When you save fruit from a hybrid, sometimes you do get an F-2 (or beyond) generation that is very similar to the F-1, and sometimes you don't, so it always is risky to save seeds from hybrids since you don't know what you'll get. It is important to save some of the seeds from each year, and label them clearly, so that if the variety begins running out (losing the qualities over multiple generations that make it worth growing) then you have some older seed to sow in an effort to get back to the quality you admired in the first place. It is important that when you get a plant that produces lower-quality fruit, that you rogue it out and not save any seed from it because you want to maintain the high quality of the fruit you get from saved seeds. Galia seed, though, is offered by many companies and is easy to find for purchase if the seed you save each year begins to give you melons that aren't as good as the original ones were. Saved seed will maintain its viability longer if stored in a deep-freeze in air-tight containers. You may have seen us talk here before about Israel and Ha'Ogen melons. Everyone I know who has grown Israel, Old Israel or Ha'Ogen has believed these varieties to be the best ones they've ever grown. I concur. So, guess who is one of the parents of Galia? Ha'Ogen is. Since you like Galia, it is likely you also would like Ha'Ogen, aka Ogen, or Israel or Old Israel melons. Of all the ones I've grown, I think that Galia, when grown in perfect weather (lots of heat so flavor can develop and not too much rainfall as the fruit matures) has the highest brix of them all. It also matures pretty early. While commercial Galia melons need to have a Brix of at least 11 in order to be sold commercially, the Brix in ideal conditions can hit the mid to upper-teens. That is one reason it is known as a dessert melon---because it is so sweet you can eat it as dessert. The first year I grew Galia I was just in awe of how wonderful it was. I guess that's been at least a decade ago. I grew tons of different melons though, so don't grow it every year.

OMG, I love the Subaru commercials, especially the one where the Goldens are following a car being driven by a slobbering Bull Dog. I laugh every time I see it. I was driving down the freeway a couple of weeks ago and saw the face of a dog in the side mirror of a car just ahead of me. I was eventually side by side to the car and this dog, a Lab was almost human like in his behavior, sitting upright in the front passenger seat and facing straight ahead in of all things A Subaru!. It looked just like the commercials and was hilarious!

Don't worry. I'm not making a recommendation. I'm just sharing/musing (not trying to persuade). I realize that different things perform differently in different conditions, and I'm not anti-hybrid. Have you tried Atkinson or Walter? I think they're probably the most disease-resistant OP varieties I know about; not sure how they perform in practice in hot, humid areas (but some people in such areas like Atkinson, at least; Walter isn't as well known). Disease isn't the issue we have here much, though, and we probably have different strains than you anyway (I've never noticed a correlation between disease resistance and which tomato plants get diseased in our garden; it seems pretty random). The real problem here is stunting from plant stress from the growing conditions. For some unknown reason, a surprisingly high percent of the commercial F1 hybrids get stunted (same for determinate tomatoes, but I don't usually grow many determinates anyway). I'm still trying to figure out why, but it's not the mere crossing of two varieties that does it: Accidental crosses tend to do really well by comparison. The stunting could be coincidence. Such happens, but it would be a pretty big coincidence. Hybrids that have done well here include these: Early Girl, Lemon Boy, Husky Cherry Red, Husky Red, Tidy Rose, Early Treat, Big Boy, Valley Girl (sans the early BER), and Celebrity. (So, they don't all get stunted.)
