And they are off...
You could consider these strains to be the peak of modern hybrids. Can these breeds be taken any further? How will they do in the same garden?
Big Thank You to OSS for getting my order to me in a week and making it possible to have them crack by July 1. The beans look great and seem to be performing in a similar fashion.
Both of these got long and top heavy. A rainstorm laid them down so I went ahead and bumped them up to 5's were I plan for them to remain with the short season. Unfortunately a pest took a fancy for the Trop Cherry (can't blame it so do I) and inflicted some serious damage last night. The beetles are brutal and they have a bunch of freinds,
Again not a lot to differentiate these plants other than physical size. Node structure remains the same. If I didn't know better I would think it was a male plant of the same strain. They are pest magnets but holding up great.
So far the genetics have been solid with these plants. No sign of flower as of today. Both of them are sporting 7 inch fan leaves. The shorter plant is the Trop Cherry.
These plants are clearly related based on structure. We are certainly looking at a late flower here. I am beginning to wonder if they will have time to finish.
Finally Showing Flowers. Not much to report. Smell is insignificant but unique to each plant. 27" on the Trop Cherry and 37" on the Blue Zushi. Node structure remains nearly identical.
Everything appears to be functioning normally. No strong smell but I recognized the Trop Cherry. The main stem on the Zushi is a most impressive telephone-pole like structure. Note the massive crown it is supporting.
