Cloudberries and bogs...

I know, several people probably don't know what cloudberry is, I know that the people that do generally at least tried out growing them if they are a gardener. My question is, anyone ever been successful as far as introducing them into their garden?

Other than that, here is my general plan ATM:

a. Attempt from seeds: growing in a Burpee 72 plant self-watering seed starting system. One seed is allready "opening" however it does not look the same as the rest....Lights are getting added tomarrow.

b. If seeds fail go for plants: friend is native to alaska, his family still lives there see if their family would be able to provide me with a female and a male plant.

c. After plants are established, set up a "flood table" as a sudo-bog, Using Peat moss and other organic materials simulate a bog, Pumping water into the bog system every soo many hours to maintain moisture.

d. Using a greenhouse like structure that is specifically developed for cooler environments (AC/Evaporative cooling).

Any tips tricks and otherwise information is appreciated!

Thanks!

Kevin
