Re: HYB: CULT: On Delayed Germination

So how many early weaklings do we have to chalk off to survival of the fittest before the strong ones start to germ? lol  
   
  I'm frustrated that 06-103 has germinated 13 seeds all of which failed by the third leaf. Naturally it's not a junk cross.

We should not fret when early birds get killed off by a late freeze. 
Survival of the fittest at work again!
