In this week’s post I outline my experiences learning to hand-pollinate Brassicas. It was a great excuse to try out my macro lens on my phone.
I don’t mention the next step in the plan- I want to see if I can recreate B. carinata from my own B. nigra and spigarello type B. oleracea lines that do reasonably well for me. This should be a way to radically increase the diversity in my B. carinata population.
