Galatians what three hybrid varieties are you most interested in?
Yeah I speed red group postings cuz I was taking a break. i have been rather busy but over the dog days of summer I will grind on this subject. But what caught my eye was that they were trading pollen
Don't know how accurate this information is but very interesting if true
Breeding Grapes - Making Crosses
Stored pollen usually remains viable, but it is often not as effective as fresh pollen
Pollen of several grape cultivars lose viability and fertilizing capacity after 2 weeks of collection and storage under ambient conditions
Crossbreeding
As previously mentioned, breeders usually experiment by crossing two or more distinct grape types to produce a new type of hybrid. In the process of crossbreeding, pollen from one grape type is used to fertilize the blossom of another. The procedure of creating hybrids from parent types allows for deviation in features such as taste, texture, and color Grapes have now expanded to include an array of exotic flavors, such as the spiciness of mint, the tropical sweetness of papaya, and even hints of floral notes. Some grape varieties have even been bred to taste akin to toffee or strawberries.
One notable variety resulting from grape breeding as of late is the cotton candy grape. Developed by the fruit breeding company Grapery in California, this variety has a unique flavor that bears a resemblance to cotton candy.
Cotton candy grapes are a hybrid of two grape varieties: a concord grape variety and the Princess grape (Vitis vinifera)
