I don't beleive Ras is an official cultivar. Chefdean sometimes names the random sarr seeds after the member that donated the seeds.
In this case, that member was Ras.

^^^^ This. The varieties of Sarr listed are the potential mothers and fathers. If I remember my math, that's 24 possible crosses and four possible selfs.

These are my s. Ras from the seed bank. They look like they have great potential!Image

Nice thx for posting that pic tracieh. I have some in the fridge that are almost done and I was thinking of making a thread requesting pics of anyone who had any of those seedlings.

Sadly this is the only seed that germinated. For some odd reason this pot and another u had put in at the same time I marked down for 4 weeks of stratification instead of my usual 6. They each gave me one plant. Usually my germination rates are higher but completely my fault.

I tried cheating on the stratification also and got zilch. I pulled it out from under the lights and chucked it on a shelf in the shed outside to chill out a little longer. Hopefully I get some later this spring.

Moral of this story: 8+ weeks stratification on S. Ras.

Update on my Ras OP seeds.. it’s only been a little over 4 weeks since I sowed them and I only have 1 confirmed sprout so far. Hopefully more will come soon. They were in the fridge for 8 weeks. Can anyone send the link for the thread with peoples updates on the numbered sarr germination I can’t seem to find it. Thx
