Watermelon seed varieties have performed well under many different environmental conditions and have had ahistory of successful use through the years. Factors beyond our control can affect watermelon crops, in particular,disease such asWatermelon Fruit Blotch and Gummy Stem Blight.
During the 1989 growing season (and to a lesser extent, during 1992 and 1993), severe crop damage resultedfrom a disease now called Watermelon Fruit Blotch (causal organism ). Even to date,Acidovorax avenae subsp. citrulli
after much research by various universities and seed company personnel, the condition under which this diseasedevelops is not clearly understood. More recently, Gummy Stem Blight has become troublesome, as well. WhileWatermelon Fruit Blotch and Gummy Blight can both be seedborne, there are many other sources which can lead to awatermelon crop becoming infected with either of these diseases.
Our suppliers have taken extra precautions to prevent any seed transmission of these diseases. Research iscontinuing to determine if different varieties have varying levels of susceptibility or tolerance for Watermelon FruitBlotch and/or Gummy Blight.
Logan-Zenner Seeds Inc. and our suppliers make no claims or representation that this watermelon seed isresistant or tolerant to disease such asWatermelon Fruit Blotch and Gummy Stem Blight.
Accordingly, with respect to watermelon seed supplied by Logan-Zenner Seeds Inc., the undersigned herebyreleases Logan-Zenner Seeds Inc and its suppliers from any and all claims relating to any damage due to bacterialdiseases such asWatermelon Fruit Blotch and any fungal diseases such as Gummy Stem Blight.
In addition to the above, the undersigned hereby agrees that in the event they subsequently sell any of such seedsor plants grown from these seeds to a third party, they will require such third party to sign a similar release agreementspecifically incorporating all of the terms and conditions contained herein and will specifically and unconditionallyagree to indemnify Logan Zenner Seeds, Inc. and its suppliers from any claim of such third party for any bacterialdisease such as Watermelon Fruit Blotch and any fungal diseases such as Gummy Stem Blight relating to watermelonseeds.

Watermelon Bacterial Fruit Blotch (WFB) and Gummy Stem Blight(GSB) have been discovered in some commercial watermelon crops in theU.S. in which severe damage was caused by this bacteria and fungi. It issuspect that the diseases can be spread through water, seed, implements,transplants, or other cultural practices. Control methods are currentlybeing studied and developed. These devastating diseases are an industrywide problem and a group of plant pathologists are currently working withseed companies, transplant firms and commercial growers to findsolutions to this important problem.
Information indicates that the bacteria of WFB and fungi of GSB canbe seed borne as well as having the ability to survive on greenhousesurfaces and in materials used in greenhouse operations as well as fieldorganic matter. The diseases can easily spread in the greenhouseconditions with humidity in excess of 50%. Unless transplant operators areeducated in the appearance of the diseases, it can easily escape detectionbefore trans-planting in the field. It is highly suspected that the diseases(bacteria & fungi) can be carried over from one season to the next and fromfield to field. Care should be taken not to plant watermelons on the samefield until research indicates the length of time required for the safeproduction on the same land. The bacteria & fungi can be carried over incasual agents in the field as well as in volunteer plants. There areindications that if WFB is found, applications of copper can achievecontrol. Information regarding control of WFB & GSB, if discovered,should be obtained from a licensed PCA or your local University or StateDepartment of Agriculture. In infected plants, the fruit are nearly alwaysaffected and the disease is readily identifiable at this stage.
DP SEEDS LLC has taken the latest recommended actions to assureour customers that our varieties are thought to be free from WatermelonBacterial Fruit Blotch and Gummy Stem Blight. Using an accepted,commercial pathology laboratory, we have had the pathologist inspect ourproduction fields in the growing stage as well as the fruit prior to harvest.We have also obtained a Federal/State Phytosanitary Certificate declaringfreedom from WFB & GSB in the growing crop. After harvest, we haverun a seed assay for WFB & GSB on each lot of seed, using currentlyaccepted protocol for identification of the diseases. In addition, we alsorun a laboratory grow-out to physically confirm our laboratory results. Itshould be noted, however, that at this time, no seed pathology test couldconclusively detect all pathogens that may be present in a given lot.
With respect to all DPSEEDS LLC watermelon seed, or plants grownfrom such seed, purchased by the Dealer from DPSEEDS LLC or any otherparty; the Dealer agrees to assume the risk and take the sole responsibilitythat such seed and plants may fail to perform as expected including, but notlimited to, failure to size or yield as expected or that such seed and plantsmay be infected with disease including, without limitation, the bacteriathat cause WFB or the fungi that cause GSB. Dealer releases, indemnifies,and agrees to defend and hold DP SEEDS LLC and /or Seller harmlessfrom any and all claims of whatever kind or nature arising from such non-performance or disease. Dealers obligation to indemnify, defend and holdDP SEEDS LLC harmless for any claims based upon or arising out of theabove shall continue even if Dealer transfers such seed or plants grownfrom such seed. Dealer’s obligation to indemnify, defend and hold DPSEEDS LLC and or Seller harmless under this agreement shall include, butnot be limited to reasonable attorneys fees and costs incurred by DPSEEDS LLC.
DPSEEDS LLC hereby advises its customers of the requirement to sign this disclaimer when purchasing Watermelon seed

WAIVER AND RELEASE AGREEMENT
Notice: Triploid hybrid watermelons are sterile hybrids which characteristically produce fruits with few or no true seeds. Because the absence, or relative
absence, or hard or true seeds in the flesh of the melon is its chief distinguishing characteristic, the triploid hybrid watermelon is often referred to as a
“seedless” watermelon. Despite this popular perception, triploid hybrid watermelons are not true “seedless” watermelons. The first melons to ripen in a
field of triploid hybrid watermelons often contain small, vestigial seeds. In addition, certain genetic, cultural and climatic factors are known to cause the
formation of empty seed coats (small, white, immature seeds) and/or hard seed coats and/or hard seeds in the flesh of the melons. Due to the wide variety
of possible causes of hard seed formation, HYBRID TRIPLOID WATERMELONS ARE NOT GUARANTEED TO PRODUCE SEEDLESS
FRUIT.
Hybrid triploid watermelons require special care for satisfactory germination. Proper care must be taken to ensure uniform germinaof triploid seed.
Triploid growers are urged to germinate seed in growth media in specific moisture and temperature conditions (Hollar can supply some relevant
information upon request), then to transplant the seedlings to production fields.
Proper plant pollination is essential to assure a successful production of hybrid triploid watermelons. Both a pollen source (pollinator variety interplanted
with hybrid triploid) and a pollen vector (bees, both naturally occurring and in commercial hives) are necessary to any hybrid triploid production.
Under certain unfavorable growing conditions, hybrid triploid watermelons have been known to develop air filled cavities (commonly known as hollow
heart) and/or cracks in the fruit's flesh. Hybrid triploids from both Hollar and other companies have shown these defects from time to time, depending
upon prevailing environmental conditions. The causes for these quality defects are likely multiple. However, what these specific causes are is as yet
unknown. .HOLLAR MAKES NO GUARANTEES OFHYBRID TRIPLOID WATERMELON FRUIT MARKETABILITY
Growers are encouraged to contact University extension personnel for government publications and information concerning recommended cultural
practices. Hollar can supply some relevant information upon request. As the production of hybrid triploid watermelon requires a high level of grower
sophistication, we suggest that growers develop expertise with hybrid triploid watermelons on a small scale prior to instituting large scale commercial
production.

Watermelon Fruit Blotch (WFB, acidovorax avenae subsp.Citrulli) and Gummy Stem Blight (GSB) are serious and highlyinfectious diseases, which constitute a significant risk inwatermelon cultivation. In addition to loss of yield, thesediseases can cause long-lasting contamination of the fieldsand/or plant nurseries. It is very important that beforepurchasing watermelon seeds, You understand the risks ofWFB and GSB that You are assuming.
The pathogens causing WFB and/or GSB can be introducedinto a field through various ways, including natural spread andinfected seeds, transplants or mechanical tools. Researchexperts do not fully understand how to insure that seed iscompletely free of WFB and GSB. Neither can seeds betreated to completely eliminate WFB and GSB. No known testfor the presence of WFB and/or GSB in seeds is 100%reliable.
Testing is always statistical and sample size varies. Theseeds provided hereunder are part of a lot from whichrepresenting samples were sent for testing for WFB - by USAlaboratories that are recognized within the seed industry andfor GSB - by laboratories that are recognized & monitored bythe Israeli Plant Protection Inspection Services (PPIS).

Hazera does not warrant that seeds provided hereunder arecompletely free of WFB and/or GSB and does not assume anyresponsibility for the occurrence of the same from seeds,plants or the fruit produce.
