If some experienced hybridizers could weigh in on this question, I'd greatly appreciate their thoughts:
What is one most likely to see from a "self" cross? Logically, I expected an intensification of the cv "selfed," or perhaps the face of one of the parents - or grandparents.
But 2 repetitions of this cross, a year apart, produced multiple identical seedlings... Which bear no resemblance to the recorded ancestors, even as far as 3 generations back. What gives? I'm suspecting an inaccurately identified ancestor. Is there another possible explanation?
