My place for preservation seed runs 2022-24

I gotta wait 9 hours for another like but I dig that setup covering the tops of the pots for collecting pollen! Is that just regular paper or like poster board or something?

I used to use a company that had the four test card. I like the one I use now as I can do any number and not waste a test when I don’t have multiples of 4.
I am collecting pollen and I can grow the clones and collect pollen. Or even send clones. I will leave it up to @The_Lazy_Hippie .

@catapult sent clones but they froze except one female clone is trying to live. @antheis is sending more.

It is two pieces of poster board. I cut two slits in each and overlapped for strength. Last time I used a cut up box to cover them. They are covered with pollen.

I am doing another run, Santa Maria f8. I forgot to post it here so, fast forwarding.

10 seeds, one was green. Another was partially green with white on it another had white on it.
All seeds were soaked in water with H202 and folic/humic acid.
The green nothing. The next two and another just poked a white tip and did nothing in the puck. Six made it to solo cups but a few days later one fell over and died.
Five little seedlings are doing good and three are really rooting really well.

@G-paS I’m so glad that you are able to get a Gogi female to flower out. Good looking out @antheis!

I didn’t get one to flower. Just one cutting to make it to a solo cup and lived. I am so glad it was a female clone that made it.

Tonight I put her in here forever home. Photo tomorrow!

She must have been in the middle and the others gave up their heat, #C5. How is her mother looking?

I have really been falling down on my updates so today will get the Santa Maria f8 seed run updated.
@Pawsfodocaws was able to contact another pack from the man himself. All five original seedlings were females.

All the way from Spain and @SamwellBB.
