Hello Walter,
This sounds like what has happened to me this year. I thought
SATAN'S MISTRESS was infertile, but found fluffy pollen and
daubed on the TBs. They all took! Only a reciprocal cross didn't
take. The result is that I have 5 pods with SM as the pollen parent
and 5 pods from all my other planned crosses combined. And I
was only using it to practice since my results had been so bad. Now
there hasn't been any pollen for over a week. The weather or bugs
or whatever, so probably the ten will be it. I tried SP, but no luck
on my part.
'Course, it's a long way from a green pod to a blooming plant anyway.
Also, this is more an exercise in curiosity on my part than anything
else. I'm hoping I don't get hooked. It's not like I don't have plenty
to do here on the Kettle homestead.
Donald
