I just harvested a pod off of another one of my small cultivars (this one is an Olallie Keith Stone's Sunset x Starman's Quest cross) and there were TWENTY-ONE (21) seeds in the pod!!!!! I couldn't believe it!!! One was squishy, but the other 20 look/feel viable!

Two shorter-variety harvests is hardly enough to go on, but has anyone else noticed that shorter cultivars give more seeds, by chance? My last incredible harvest (14 seeds, 10 viable) was also a shorter variety (Little Grapette x Pardon Me).

I am SO EXCITED! And, yet again, I can't put in the accurate number in PlantStep. Glare I'll just have to look at my notes really carefully this season and hope that there is a PlantStep update that fixes the issue in the future! Smiling
