I think it's a poly, for starters. But that doesn't mean that all the blooms will be polys. Leslie (Lalambchop) is a poly expert, so she could probably tell us for sure.

Thanks, Betty! Thumbs up I agree in that I don't think it is showing any other unusual buds. So, does this mean that poly's are generally a percentage-of-time kind of thing, like doubling? Are there some that are 100% poly all the time? *glances at Les and hopes she's not busy* Green Grin!

Its a poly. Yes, there are some that poly 100%. As you stated, they go on percentages. For some reason, I have found that lots of FFO are poly.
I hope you dont mind me answering, I think Leslie would approve, since she taught/teaches me.
Leslie, not busy...nada ;-)

Hi Guys,
Thanks for jumping in there! Yep. It's a poly. I've been lining out so hit and miss on here. Thanks for posting it!

OT - Pam, you will appreciate this. The kids at my son's school have been studying Greece, the olympics, etc. We took them to the local Greek Fest last Friday. This week they're all coming here and we're making baklava. I've already scheduled my house keeper to come help with the aftermath!

Kim, at least I'll "send" you a picture. It turned out well tho I have found I prefer pistachios to walnuts. Being a southerner I think I'll try pecans next time.

Just saw on Facebook that our Leslie's husband's job has downsized after him working there for 34 years. Leslie and her husband are now having to downsize and look for a smaller home. I feel so bad for them because I remember when Leslie got her lovely home by the lake and she hasn't lived there all that long. I truly hope that all things work out well for her.

A lot of companies seem to be downsizing Sad Bobby has worked at TVA fossil fuel power plant for about 34 yrs, they are pushing some of the older men to retire because some plants are closing in the south and only so many opening are available. Everyone loves their electricity tho Sad

I'm so sorry to hear of the news. Being downsized isn't easy for anybody! Hope you have good fortune in selling/buying another home, Leslie.

Thanks everyone. Your support means alot. We've found a smaller home we like and are waiting to see if we can get financing. We actually like it better than where we are and it's closer to DS's school. It would cut our school commute from 40 mins to 15! Will keep you posted.

I hope eveything goes well for you!!! Just the less commute time will be a blessing. I know when we moved it cut our commute time from 1 hour round trip to less than 10 minutes RT and I was SOOOOOOO happy.
