unfortunately the odds for the dropping of the vast majority of flowers are very high for S. Habrochaites crosses...

Yup, I’m pretty used to it by now, I don’t stress it.Got at least one setting fruit already, and now that I look at it I do think there’s less bug pressure on the hairy stems, especially from my suck bugs

I'm not trying to make this a daily update, so I'll pause for a while after this. But I have 18/30 with fruit set. And many of them are looking like little baby slicers instead of cherry/grape, so psyched about that. Now it's starting to get fun!

The stripes sure are pretty!
Gotta say that large one with the dark green shoulders looks really promising too. I look at that and I think, could be really tasty.
