🍎 And They Say You Can't Grow Good Apples From Seed LOL 🍏

Another walk through the orchards testing new apple varieties grown from seed. There are quite a few promising new apple seedlings this year. It is actually pretty shocking how high the percentage of good apples I've gotten is. Some crosses, like Wickson x Rubaiyat and Williams' Pride x Vixen, seem to be throwing especially high numbers of good apples. Others, like Grenadine x Wickson, seem to throw mostly poor quality fruits. That is some of the most valuable information I'm getting from this project. Someday, we'll have lists of crosses that are especially prone to success, which could be very valuable.
