Was able to get 2 pods to set on the above seedling, one is X Linda Beck, other Precious Candy. Should be ready to harvest first week of November. takes 45-50 days to mature.

Wasn't able to get replacement seeds of Yoga Man X EKSB, so I asked for this cross instead.
Should be a excellent cross.

Extended growing space by 1ft, which is about 25 more seedling that I can grow under the big LED.
Still need to put down plastic, and paper towels to soak up any extra water after watering.

Most of these could have been planted out, hopefully some flower come Summer 2025.

Did plant out 11 seedings, down by the road.

DROP IT LIKE IT'S HOT X Yoga Man. all six seeds germinated. 10 days from soaking to leaf starting.

Yoga Man x Water Drops didn't want to sprout, so back in the fridge.

Started the Asgard x Sharply Focused , two seeds have sprouted and are in cups.

Update on my biggest Yoga Man X EKSB seedling. Was put into a bigger pot, and some of the older leaves removed.. Thinking it might flower during the Winter.

Jeff , thanks.

This Summer, should have lots of new seedlings flowering for the first time.

Yoga Man X Every Knee Shall Bow, seeds were started around the first week of December 2023, so this seedling is about 11 months old. Guessing around Christmas/Jan will see a flower..............can't wait. Hopefully it's something I can use to hybridize with. Still have pollen in freezor, if I decide to try to set seed pods.
