I'm trying some hybridizing and have a few questions for you more
experienced folks.
Does it matter which bloom you choose to use, (top or other)? NO
If you use the top bloom for the pod parent, do you have to remove the
other
buds and flowers after you make the cross? (Horrors!) NO
Can you make different crosses on more than one bloom on the same stalk?
YESIf the pod begins to form and a strong storm breaks off the stalk, will
the
seeds still form if you put the stalk in a vase of water? NO, THE PODS TAKE
TOO LONG TO RIPEN; THE STALK WILL ROT FIRST
If you make a cross can you carefully pinch off the dead bloom head just in
front of the pod, or should you leave the dead bloom.I GENERALLY LEAVE THEM
UNTIL THEY DRY OUT, THEN TRIM
