Watermelon juice can usually be washed off when it gets on clothes. It is easier to wash off if you wash it immediately after it gets on the clothes. However, if it has been on the clothes for a while and the watermelon seeds have seeped into the fibers of the clothes, it may be difficult to wash it off completely. You can try using white vinegar, salt, baking soda, ammonia water, etc. to wash it.
