Cant wait for the pics man!
Weedhound sez...It was probably more like 80 seeds. But I will cull down to a dozen and then hope I have room for them all until they show sex. I hope for six to eight plants to mature.Quote:

Wow....that's some heavy duty culling there. What are some of your criteria for seedlings....how do you decide which ones to keep etc....Obviously the heartier ones but what else do you base your decision on?
I know Shov's not a 'Nuck... His local climate however means he might as well be.
See my post in Basic Growing "What ate my Bubblegum..."
I repotted 18 plants. Sorry to say, I only have one good bubblegum right now.
Criteria...hmmm, I know what that is <G> I save the strong, kill the weak and infirmed! <G>. Well, the BG seeds are commercial seed stock, so I plant and cull less of them. The other seeds I have plenty to play with.
Sorry, no pics yet. I'm very busy, going out of town and coming back with my daughter for a few days visit.
Later

heh, and with my local climate i may as well be a yank. :)Quote:
