Green thumber's: is their co e lation between strong plants and first seed the parent makes?
Question:say early in the seed producing time they come out better then at the end of the plant seed producing time cycle?
Answers:
OK - I think I know what your gett'n at. Does the first seed produced by a plant give rise to a better plant than those from seeds that mature later ? Maybe yes, maybe no, but those first seeds would tend to produce plants that matured earlier. Before hybridizing and gene splicing were the norm, this was a common practice to improve plant varieties. RScott
Not sure what you mean (?)
Are you asking if there is a difference when planting a seed at the beginning of the season versus planting a seed at the end of the season ??
Or...Are you asking if a produce, say for example, a tomato, is better at the beginning of the season than at the end of a harvest(?)
correlation
Not really. Parent plants produce seeds. All of the seeds produced will be viable and grow with the same traits.
