As the title says…Shishkaberry preservation run folks!!
I picked up these Shishkaberry from non other than our very own @ShiskaberrySavior…received these beans what seems to be around 10 years ago…maybe less…maybe more…not quite sure! Lol He might be able to give us a timeframe.
Started with 30 I believe…gifted a few out to what I thought was a trusting friend who said was doing a seed increase but sadly disappeared…so now left with 19 beans to go through…a good number so I thought!
These were kept in my seed fridge inside a sealed glass container and rice…but unfortunately have had a relatively low germination rate…and what did, have been quite slow to get going…not sure the age of the beans before I got them but I’m gonna give them their best fighting chance!
Of the 19 seeds I tried to germ I’ve had 8 fully germinate and now are above soil!! A few still need to shed the husk but officially it’s GAME ON!! Was hoping to do a selective breeding on these but we’re going to keep it open as not as many to play with as had planned…either way we’re going for it!
So here they are in all their glory
Enjoy the ride
