Community Project 2024 and Beyond

Hey All* just wanted to start a discussion about the future of the community project. Nothing negative! Just some retrospective on what I'm seeing and my opinion on what we should do going forward! Exciting, right?

So the the 5 Aji Charapita crosses we made are a mixed bag. The fruit are beautiful with shiny skin and they have great flavor. They are also medium sized and yield seems to suffer for it. With these crosses I plan to identify the best F3-F4 plants and cross them to large fruited, high quality chinense varieties. I have potential parents growing right now but I haven't evaluated fruit so I don't know which I would use but there are about 5 to pick from. If anyone has F3 selections right now any they want to make crosses I would also love to advance those as well.

More to follow by edit...
