You are so far ahead of me! I don't have a clue about such things, but admire your courage to try this!

Woohoo! You've got babies! Good work. Some day, probably long into the future, I hope to try this as well. Until that time, I'm learning as much as I can by watching others

Very exciting! That sounds like a nice pairing.

What techniques did you use? Green pod or dry seed?

You have lots of cell division and replication going on there, so I'd say you're doing great!! Watch for brown spots to develop, that's the only thing I'd be concerned about - but so far, this looks great! Keep that lid on tight!
