I've started this thread to keep track of this year's VFT cross pollinations. I will also post pics of the seed growns I get.
This is the first "serious" time I'll be doing cross pollinations. (Last year only a typical and a trichterfalle flowered for me). I "mixed in" some warmer range lighting to help with the flowering. Last year I didn't even have any indoor lighting lol.
Here's what I have flowering:
Triton
Trichterfalle
Dentate
Clayton's Red sunset
King Henry
Fuzzy tooth
MD Buttcheeks (first time they're flowering so I'm looking to see if the flower is deformed/viable or not)
MD 01
MD 02
MD 04
MD 05
(links to threads with photos of the MD # varieties can be found in my growlist)
Any cool crosses you guys can think of?
Not everything is flowering at the same time, and I'm collecting pollen, but "vice versa" pollination wont be possible in a few plants. I hoped more red cultivars would make flowers this year, as I wanted to cross Red varieties and some "weirdo" cultivars. The red ones still might surprise me with flowers in a few weeks.
The first crosses that came to mind are Trichterfalle x triton, pollination everything else with triton pollen, Clayton's red x fuzzy tooth, Clayton's red x MD01 or 05, Buttcheeks x Fuzzy tooth, Buttcheeks x King henry.
(p.s. "mother x father" - just so I can keep the crosses strait)
Notes on flower markings:
Triton- All flowers selfed
MD01- Red thread = MD01 x Triton
MD04- Black thread = MD04 x Triton
MD04- Red Thread= MD04 x Trichterfalle
MD05- Green thread = MD05 x Trichterfalle
Trichterfalle- Pink thread = Trichterfalle x Triton
Trichterfalle- Green thread= Trichterfalle x MD05
