Che (melon berry)

@Robert

I cannot prove it yet and I have a lot of research to do. I think.most would agree we should have more than 4 varities and the precious little information we have thus far. Peo0le have already told me they have known about them for 20-30 years and they learned more reading the info I posted than they have in the entirety of that time. These nurseries that grow these know the information. They are not encouraged by anyone to share information with the general public. I have a seedling male and I’m already planning crosses.

Most of you know if I want something to grow in Kansas I can’t just plant it and hope it survives. I have spent 10 years on failed Che efforts. I’m going back to my old rip and replace strategy. I will start hundreds of Che seeds and breed a better cold hardy, delicious , heavy producing selected Che on its own roots. @tonyOmahaz5 I may need your help old friend. We know the originals were as thorny and hardy as Osage orange. There is not enough diversity amongst the Che fruits.
