Post 47 and discussion that followed, but I don't know what post Ilex posted that you are quoting from since I have Ribera seeds,out for seed production this past summer,one here at home was a bust as were the majority of others that Freda was growing for me.

And Ilex,I would like to know if my seed producers,including Gerardo, do or do not have Ribera.

Carolyn
Yes, without checking, that's probably the one. Carolyn, that little tiny blue right-pointing arrow after the quoted person's bolded screen name will take you to the post if you click on the arrow, no matter how many pages away it is. So, you can actually click on the LTBRPA (little tiny blue right-pointing arrow) in MY post which quoted Ilex to take you there.

Yes, I sent 100 en pom de la Ribera. It is a very good tasting de colgar multifleur.

Default Orange tomatoes

In the face of a pretty heavy onslaught of bugs and heat, Joseph's HX-9 was a tough one and endured it all.

Here's a few HX-9 and a couple of Orange Russian Doukhobors. HX-9 is a relatively compact plant with determinate traits, in my garden it produced medium, very tasty fruits. Two thumbs up. I'll be saving seeds and selecting for the tough tasty ones. It handled a severe heat wave in stride.

OR Doukhobors will be given another shot. So far I like it.

I got seeds from Ilex for the Ribera one,yes. Was grown grown out for seed production this past summer by three of my now 7 seed producers and I think all is OK,I haven't checked back after I saw that germination was excellent.

And I've gone back to your post above and see no little blue arrow anywhere.Other icons on the lower left,yes, but just ones to report you and the like.

Carolyn, who knows she has stuff she can read which others can't,being a Global Mod here, since there's no way you are going to report yourself for an infraction.

I believe he said the ones the man is carrying are NOT Ribera but are 100 en ramo, unless that means something else...

As for the tiny little blue arrow, (light blue? silver?) it is the little square icon after the username being quoted...it appears in every quote box. Maybe you're looking too hard? it's just a little square maybe 1/8" by 1/8" with a right arrow ("greater than" symbol.) See it right after "Originally Posted by carolyn137"?

I think you are right as to 100 en ramo, but it does get confusing since he also sent 100 en Pom LL-51
and Colgar Papuo,which I know is right and then what he called 100 en Pom de la Ribera.

I have to contact him about this to confirm,but also some other stuff as well.

And now I see that wee blue arrow,I measured it and it's actually 2/8 inches by 2/8 inches.

Default xmas watermelons and a happy bee, today 10/13/2016

Sweet Success F1 Cucumber + Apis (large pics)

Garden doing well after hardcore thrips and the corresponding TSWV-INSV.
Happy I was able to save seeds before they showed up.
My interventions (minimal) and weather changes (by far the largest impact) are helping.
The worst has passed.
Still, today I axed 3 Copper River as a result of TSWV stunting/failure to thrive.

Malachite Box continues to impress.

Gerardo, are you saying you recognize the smaller ones but not the bigger of the 2? Are they supposed to be smooth?

The bee on the parthenocarpic Sweet Success flower is a touch ironic. From what I read, cross-pollination is still possible with parthenocarpic varieties. So if any of your Sweet Success cukes have seeds that don't dry out to empty husks, they might be viable.

Mark,I can't really go into all of this on line b/c the answer back from I llex is complicated and also private.

The old man is holding one truss in each hand,neither of them are the Ribera seeds that I was sent.

The left one may be en ramo, even more complicated since Catalan Spanish is not the same as non Catalan.

No,I have no seeds for en-ramo, but hope to in the near future.

I said above that I would transmit the info that I llex sent me to those who actually grew Ribera,which I did last night.

Ribera is still a multiflora but looks nothing like what the old man is holding. I had several seed producers who were growing Ribera and the description originally were large beefsteaks,no longer true.

So it was important for me to get back to those who were doing seed production since 2/3 are SSE listed members and have a deadline to meet for the 2017 Yearbook.
