Bred these a few summers ago. I now have the F1 and F2 seeds, but haven’t gotten a chance to experiment more with them this past growing season.
在今年我进行了一个杂交项目，一共杂交了八个组合，非常不幸的是有一个组合已经完全灭绝了，另一个组合今年种植的植株并没有结果，所以我只获得了六个组合的果实，其中有两个耐热性和抗病性都非常不错的品种，现在来欣赏一下吧，希望他们都能很好吃
Honey melon (honey b x watermelon) male (rolex male) sweet candy melon (all melon lots of vigor very easy plant topped it once lots of stretch
Grape melon Burst (grape moon pop x watermelon) male (rolex male) very fruity with strong acidtone
Has a weird structure mutaion has 4 semetrical axial limbs all the way down.
Kinda was hoping for that specific plant to be a male had 2 both male I kept the best one both had that same mutation.
Cherry sugar (cherry pie x sugar titz) kept just for the genetics
Hey everyone,
I'd like to share with you an update of a project that I've been working on for a while - breeding a black nightshade with large fruits.
I've been growing edible Solanum nigrum that I found in the wild near my home and I do like the taste a lot, it's quite refreshing.
But, in my opinion, it has two problems that prevent it from being cultivated as a fruit plant: the fruit is quite small and easily breaks inbetween your fingers when harvested.
So I decided to domesticate it by crossing it with the garden huckleberry (Solanum scabrum) and then selecting for the best plants out of the bunch.
Solanum scabrum has exactly what I want from a black nightshade except the taste - it's largely tasteless, if not bitter, when raw (though not poisonous).
I decided to create a blog site where I'll document my progress on not only this project but other Solanaceae breeding experiments as well.

I would love to hear what do you think about this.
Thanks!

Hi! I’m looking to buy Rubus pedatus and Rubus lasiococcus seeds for an experimental breeding project involving Arctic raspberry (Rubus arcticus), which I already grow. I’m interested in exploring whether crosses and changes in ploidy could produce new berries with interesting flavours, partly inspired by research into cloudberry’s possible ancestry.
• Rubus pedatus — five-leaved bramble / strawberry-leaf raspberry
• Rubus lasiococcus — roughfruit berry / dwarf bramble
Does anyone grow either species and have spare seeds, or know a nursery or collector who sells them? I’m interested in seeds only, and I’d happily pay for them and cover postage.
Even a small quantity would be appreciated.
Seeds from cultivated plants or collected wild seeds would both interest me.
A photo of the parent plant and the collection date would be helpful.
If you don’t have any now but might have seeds next season, I’d still love to hear from you!
Please comment or message me if you can help. Thanks!
