the Podo's in the green house are finished blooming for this season

But the Podo's in the garden are at their peak of the bloom

and the Hexandrum just started poking their noses up out of the ground a cpl weeks ago

and the pollen on the Podo's in the green house would only last at most 3 days even with the precautions i took and some plants the pollen just wasn't ready at the right time

i did have 5 or 6 different kind of plants to work with which if you think about it can be a lot
as i'm checking now and seeing some fruits shriveling up that did not make it and feeling relieved i won't have so many different babys to raise. BUT there are still a lot of seed pods getting big

sooo in planning for next season i need to think which plants to keep out side for a later pollen and bring the slow ones like hexadrum inside

and also try to find a better way to store the pollen for trade with you all

and the most important seed pods that are growing are the KGGG and i did a lot of them Smiling
which means i will have a lot of KGGG (Kaleidoscope) babys for those of you that want some
