Name: Dick Strever

I was one of the first 300 contributors to the plant database! Region: Pacific Northwest Region: California

i have been losing them one after another
the first seed pod loss was the one on my baby SDK Crying
then one of the Pandas lost all the seed pods
a cpl of the KSD pods didn't make it and so forth
they just quit growing bigger
the most recent loss is one whole Imperial sunrise quit
i opened the pods to see what was happening and they had itty bitty seeds that just didn't delvelop
i think the plant was too young to handle the pregnancy Smiling
but there are still some very large seed pods developing as large or larger then golf balls
and boy am i going to have a lot of Kaleidoscope seed Wow
i've also lost several of my babys
seems the KSD crosses aren't as strong as the SDK
and i'm down to only 3 KSD babys
but the SDK babys are doing very good, i even put some out in the garden
we have had a cpl heat waves were the Green house got over 100°
sure made a bunch of limpy everything in there
most have recovered some have not and i will just have to wait til spring
hope i haven't rattled on too long for an answer
i should take some picts and show status
Gardens are a thing of Beauty and a job forever
