I'd be ecstatic to get that many seeds from a cross! I think the low
humidity here inhibits the ability to set seeds, but I am usually using
arilbred pollen and that probably inhibits it too. So I'm always working
with a lot smaller number of seeds in a cross than I'd like. With not very
good germination rates, and subsequent attrition on plants that have
germinate, I'm not ending with a high number of siblings to compare with
each other.
