  1. well you need some good ole butter to spread on em!!!!! lol

    (never heard of bread plants)


  2. i quarantee if you plant a loaf of bread it'll have flowered and borne fruit by the end of the summer. regardless if the loaf were sliced or not. Although I don't recommend buttering or toasting pre-planting. now as for cross bread, i'm assuming you mean the hot cross buns we harvest around easter time. we did have a lot of flooding this year but I'm betting we could  have a decent crop. BUTTER UP!

  3. You simply take pollen from one and use it to pollinate the others' flower.  Some plants will be incompatable, though.  It will mostly only work with plants of related species.

  4. You can cross breed plants by pollinating one with another's pollen. If it is the same species of plant but different cultivars (like tomatos or peppers) the resulting seeds should give a hybrid. They might not be "true to type", which means there isn't any way to tell how the offspring will behave, but the seeds of the offspring should also be able to grow.

    If the plants are similar species (ie same genus, like plums and apricots, which make pluots) they might still cross pollinate. The resulting plants will probably not be fertile so you can only produce one generation of plants.
