Kobsukh had better hire another flasker.....!!

Post by MrCym »

I'm just tallying up a rough count of the flask orders for our next e-mail to Pakkret and we're well over 800 replates. Orders are cut-off now but the response has been almost overwhelming. We are about to announce our new hobbyist supplier in the EU and it seems like I must make the long trek to Shanghai just before the 2025 Lunar New Year. I have never been to China at Lunar New Year time so I am keen to observe color preferences and methods of marketing Cyms at Malls and plant shops. I believe Susu is also planning a jaunt South for me to see the cut flower Cym operation he is overseeing. I foresee the Chinese market will explode over the next five years and we are focused on WT lines that will extend their season and provide the preferred colors. You will never read cutting edge information like this at any other Cym Forum, of that I am sure.

How many seedlings are in a re plated flask?

Kobsukh plates 44. I have actually got 44 from a few flasks but we cull from the flask so probably we sow 35 on average.

Really waiting to hear the news about your new hobbyist supplier in the EU. Can you give an idea when it will happen?

Sadly, I guess there is no commercial outfit left which is strong enough to expand the Agency into the UK, let alone too few serious amateurs to take advantage even if there was an outlet.
