There’s an apple that is only populated by grafting it.

I have a question for the seed makers around, if I can see seeds like this, are the seeds done? Do I need to let them keep going? The plant was only pollinated 1 time.

Do you know roughly how many weeks it’s been since it was pollinated?

I’m no master by any means, but I usually try make sure I can get some mature seeds showing like in your picture and even let a couple drop :joy:

Sometimes they germinate right next to their mother, It’s awesome to see that lol

But I’m sure other people have different experiences and opinions, of course…

It’s coming up on 5 weeks like Wednesday I think.

I’m sure this would be different for different mothers and fathers but last time I made seeds they were pollinated at day 21 and pulled at day 65 so roughly 44 (6.28 weeks) and they were fully developed with very few white seeds.

Thanks for the info, I’m trying to ge it figured out. I have too much going on, again, but don’t want to risk having a crappy seed crop for this first go round

Towards the end I just started grabbing lowers and pulling them apart to check the seeds progress.

I’d wait slightly longer til around week 6 if it was me but it’s very strain dependent as well…

As mentioned, pluck a few to check… generally when there done, you’ll see that sac split and the seed will want to fall out… usually best to leave them cooking as long as possible. best is to leave till plant naturally dies…

I’d say no you’ll get low maturity rates right now. Rule of thumb 6 weeks from pollination, 7 even better.

Pop a bean out and inspect it.

Like mentioned a few times, and Definitely plant/environment dependant, but ~6 weeks is a good number to shoot for. I’ve always let the plant tell me when they’re ready to be free.

Let em ride. :v:

That’s the problem, I don’t speak that language yet.

Gotcha. I guess, if you’re touching it and seeds are dropping… That’s my tell. :shushing_face:
