I actually do not know much about this but I think you should consult internet(Google precisely) and experienced farmers too. But I believe that is caused by pest.

Did you spray insecticide? If u did ? What's ur schedule?dat looks like caterpillar handiwork. weekly preferably n its recommended u use systemic n contact insecticide. It seems ur watermelon didn't get enough water n nutrients -looking from the size or perhaps you planted d sugarbaby variety.

I appreciate ur attempt op. I was into dt bisnez 2 years ago. I doubt if it is water that is causing d problem. Maybe insecticides were not sufficient enough or the land is not too suitable for it. I doubt if there is any intervention other than for u to hope for the best, cos d pests are already inside d fruits.

but don't give, there should be hope
