Re: hybridizing question
Ray,
Sum & Sub. gives a wide variety of seedling size, leaf shape, and
color. No one is sure what it's parentage is as it is listed as 2 Aden
numbered plants crossed. I have used it many times selfing, OP, and as
a pod parent for other crosses. For some reason when I try to pollinate
it, I don't get a lot of pod set. I usually make my crosses in early
morning, and maybe it doesn't accept pollen until later, and the bees
are active all day. When I let the bees do it, they get better pod set,
but I don't know Papa. Anyway the pods that set are usually full of
viable seed. It is an interesting pod parent though.
