I sent out packets of seeds that I thought were SSSDH F1s - but there may have been a mix up in labeling on my end. I’m still running the plants from the seed germ test to see what they actually are. They may be SWT4, which is from Breeder Steve- but it’s not SSSDH.
It also looks like there was another attempt at doing a preservation run that may have been slightly sidetracked…
I don’t have room, but I’d be happy to throw a few bucks to someone that wants to order the seeds. I just don’t want to deal with waiting for the shipping and having to deal with reshipping.
I want to PP like $25 to someone so they can order the seeds directly.
That should get us at least a 10 pack. If the grower (or anyone) wants to match the funds, that will give us a 50 pack!
We could also pool some funds and buy a 100 pack and either lest 1 grower do the run, or they could split it up and send out packs to other people.
I don’t know the germ rate on the Res seeds, so this is a bit of a hail mary, and if it doesn’t work, I certainly wouldn’t hold it against any of the breeders.
Soooo…if you are interested, let us know. I’d prefer a level 3 member, but if you have a proven track record, you can throw your hat in the ring too.
The breeder will be sent the money, and then they will be responsible for ordering and receiving the seeds, so this might be better for a UK breeder. But I’m open.
Let me know what you think or if anyone is interested in my crazy idea.
Im on the process of trying to do a preservation run on those sssdh f1 and Ix1
Fortunately of 20 seeds I only have 4 that germinated and are growing right now. Even with GA3 non of the others I tried to germinate did make it.
My only hope and wish is that atleast 1 of 4 is a male and the other 3 are nice and beautiful females!! But I do like your idea and if this goes to hell I chip in some $$ for the project no doubt !
Yeah considering the germ rates on those I think we need the 100 pack to get a good chance at getting some good plants and a good enough mix to do another kinda open pollination.
I already have a 10 pack each of those exact sssdh regs and the ix1 I will gladly send to anyone that wants to run them for the community.
The offer still stands!
I’m going to check with some folks that expressed interest, but I wouldn’t mind if some other folks wanted to get onboard with this project.
