NOTES
seed line w/ numbered sibling selections; Verne grew Karel Knize's KK242 from 2006 seed, and Cactus Affinity has catalogued the resulting plants under separate JS accession numbers — meaning individual siblings from that seed batch have each been given their own identity: JS349, JS368, JS391 (a seed grow), JS393, JS398, JS399 , plus "Vernes 2006 KK perus" and "peru — Verne's Cactus Kate KK242." This is the seed-line-to-clone pipeline documented in real time and done properly. Rather than selling everything as "KK242" and letting sibling variation corrupt the name, each selection got its own number. Compare with Juul's Giant, where the opposite happened. Worth citing in section 2 as the model practice.
