Re: Pollen Strike Rates

Kelly and all:
 
Ok, you finally got me to get up and quit procrastinating and to verify my crosses (something I have been meaning to do and kept putting off).
 
So, I went out into the garden and made sure I had a pod for each of the entries in my stud-book. (You KNOW you are getting older when you have iris crosses, rather than dates' phone numbers in your stud-book).  lol
 
Anyway, here are the results:
 
I made my first cross this year on 3/24/04 and my last on 4/28/04. 
 
I made 186 crosses, and currently have 109 full pods.  That is almost 59%. 
 
8 of those pods involve DOCTOR NO as either a pollen or pod parent.
