@Bluejay77 Oh you got the Kishwaukee twins back together, that is great news. Does the green have a stable seed coat color?
That is interesting that two beans are pretty much stable in all respects but throw different seed colors. I wonder if repeating the cross would bring about the same results.Hi @Hal,
No the Kiswaukee Green does the same thing the KY does throws off a tan seeded one and a black seed coated one. Plants and pods look the same too.
Thank you for the offer, I got lucky and between the last post and this one managed to get a packet that was the real deal courtesy of a small organic seed supplier whom I forgot had a small rack at a local store.If you need some Cherokee Wax let me know I got the real thing here for sure. Plus we need to figure out a way for you to get FPJ.
Sounds like you need some bean fed deer and beef stew.I checked the big bean plot of 163 varieties yesterday and the new seed I filled in is all coming up and healthier looking than the first planting. It didn't really seem as if the weather was any warmer, but could have been slightly drier. That might have made the difference. No so water logged soil. The local deer made a visit again and chomped on some beans. I wish she would stay away. She usually loses interest in the beans when they reach a certain level of maturity. I don't know if the taste changes, the beans plants simply get tougher than the deer likes them, or she just doesn't happen to come around for the season anymore.
