I sprouted beans indoor a few weeks ago and selected 5 females to go in the ground. I kept 1 male to make beans. I sowed another round indoor to see if I get a couple more females to pick through. I’ll have beans to share after the end of the season.
I put the following varieties in the ground…
Hell’s Kitchen = NYCD x Lemon Bruleé from Covert
Black Domina x True OG from @allpronobro
Power Cheese = UK Cheese x (UK Cheese x Power Plant) from Luna
Blue Peaches = (Blueberry Squealer #5 x Blueberry Squealer (F2)) from Okcalyxx
I saved the following male…
Destination Wedding = (Indiana Bubblegum x Wedding Cake) x Afghan Punch from Heart and Soil
I put more of the DW to try for a female. I also sowed some [(Indiana Bubblegum x Wedding Cake) x Afghan Hindu Kush] from Heart & Soil and a few [(SKxLK)x(Z3x(WCxBM))] made in my 2021 garden.
I got 100% germ on the beans popping up. I’ll get these sex tested and grow out the females a few nodes to see what I save and what I gift away. Hopefully, I don’t end up with 70% males like the last test batch!
