What is the likelihood of like.... all these flowers swelling up into seeds? I have picked some of the little ones and dissected them, they have what looks like flower stamens inside instead of a seed. Are those likely on trajectory to stay a flower?

I have cut them open in the past as I went through what you are going through now. Under 2xs magnification I reasoned them to be unfertilized ovaries. They had me worried also. They looked so big. Everything was fine with that grow.

These seeds you’re finding..is it the calyx’ that grow at the internodes or are you finding actual seeded buds? None of the buds in your pics look seeded….

I guess it is possible the plant was exposed to pollen before your main buds were developed enough to get seeded. The pistils on the bracts/Calyx at the internodes will mature before the bud pistils so this may be what’s going on.

I've been busy this year anyway. What doesn't look like it's going to flower early enough or has no septoria resistance feeds the animals and they can enjoy the buzz. It's not worth spraying. I don't even want the seeds.

I pollinated a few plants, especially the one with the most resistance to septoria. They seemed to mostly be fairly fast finishers, a couple of them would have faired better indoors. Happy for the dry spell, wondering if the 100 degree heat is speeding up the finishing times? Most things seem to finish mid to late Sept. here at my latitude, often triggering in late July.

Current temp. The dry heat really slowed down the septoria.PXL_20230904_194629820.jpg

It's 94 here so I decided to pull down my cucumber patch to give me a place to put my outdoor plant which is a male I'm growing for pollen collection.

How is your flock doing?

Aura finishes getting a dose of doxy-tyl tomorrow. She's seemed healthy for the last few days if not just really thin. She's eating just not much. The birds who were sick and got better, are vulnerable to this heat.... higher than 95, depending on the conditions, and their little brains melt. I don't want to lose any more pets this year. Not taking any chances.
