Funny news video! in China, farmers misused a growth accelerator chemical and ruined the entire melon farm because all the melons began exploding!

Yeah, I think the real take-away on this story is the single sentence that farmers here use it on kiwi and grapes! I'm not so sure I want to eat anything sprayed with a growth accelerator.
