So I’m ditching all the earthbox plants. In my main grow I had a male show at day 12 and I’ve been waiting for such an opportunity to try and breed a fast day 60 strain and while it may not be true the hypothesis is early show=Early finish. The first plant in the earthbox showed at day 19 for comparison, popping enough beans to find the golden boy is a necessary sacrifice and moving forward I’ll try to conduct larger pheno hunts. I also killed the Root Beer Float seedling as it wasn’t thriving like it should, then the backup seed didn’t pop. In the 2x2 raised bed I sowed 11 BlackberryxCMD and they are on day 2 with a few late arrivals
I will selectively pollinate most of the plants I am growing this round now with only the fast Male. Maybe a branch per plant on 9 different strains to give myself the best opportunity to recapture the speed.
The fast male is a HubbabubbaSmelloscope x (HubbabubbaSmelloscope x Coal Miners Daughter) I’ve dubbed the strain Beauregarde Bx1 eventually I want to make it a purple strain so it can be appropriately named Violet Beauregarde, the blackberry crossed to this might be the golden ticket to achieve that
Here is the fast male back on day 12
