Indoor Tobe’s testers

[Trichome Jim]

Alright, so I am testing a round for our friend Tobe, he has some (Auto Gelato x Purple punch) x Orange Assault F1 beans he has graciously sent out.

I decided to Pop 8 initially, soaked overnight and then off to the paper towel

Then into an old DVD case and beside the router they went

After 2 days I had 4 that Popped tails and were planted, and 4 who were not showing much action, I swapped the paper towel and set them back in their incubation chamber. After another few days they still had not done anything so I Popped the remaining 4 in the same manner.

A couple days later and 1 popped a tail the other 3 nothing, I decided to gently crack the seeds manually to see what would happen and this seemed to work, 2/3 seeds had tails and were planted with 1/2” tails the last never did anything. I mentioned this to To e and he said that he had similar results with his own tests, may be that the cross just creates hard shells .

Anyway, 7 beans have been planted , 4 in 6” pots and 3 in solo cups. These are regular seeds and I am hoping for 4 females to have a good run for Tobe. Here are a few pics over the last little while.

So far the large one looks to be starting female pre-flower but it’s quite early and I will have to wait to confirm.

Thanks again @tobe
