Re: Flower Development
Yes, 2 flowering plants. Very informative suggestion. But one of the plant is divided from the other. They are genetically identical clones. Transferring pollen from the other is still self pollination. Each flower only lasts 2 days, with stigma receptive the second day. To ensure fertilization, I'll rub among the flowers.
The pollen grain does look whiter than other plants..:) |

Week 3 - at full bloom: Attachment 3335 Week 4 - flowers are short lived. Every flower lasts only 2 days. Stigma looks receptive the 2nd day. Attachment 3336 Week 5 - ripening seedpods: Attachment 3337 On the left, I have peeled off the seedpod so that the seeds lining in are visible. Attachment 3338 The seedpods and seeds are really small. Attachment 3339 I thought seed development failed initially. But they seem easily self-pollinated, with or without help. There were flowers that failed to have the petals opened up. Even those flowers have seeds developed. Fewer than others though. |

It is very hot recent weeks. 32C indoors. Probably 35+C under direct sunlight. All my plants under 6 hour direct sunlight suffer severe sunburn. Just moved them to a place with 4 hour sunlight. The 7 month old seedlings are doing great in 2 hour sunlight. |
Re: Flower Development
Well actually I tried to put them in a container to block them from rain...then I forgot them and the container practically microwaved them...

It is true that flowering is exhaustive to VFT. This is how the plant look like after completing the flowering process. It is setback at least 2 months.
Attachment 3496 Will take it a while to recuperate...:) |
