Foundation collection entry TCF-037. It gives an unkeyed cross formula, broadly describes Wekiwa as grapefruit and Sampson tangelo, and lists November–February availability; the page does not establish cross direction or an observed maturity window. No named specimen, sample count, site, or rootstock is given.

Citrus ID Edition 2 footer identifies October 2011 as edition metadata, not a page-specific publication date. The entry contains structured morphology and separately attributes additional cultivar description to Hodgson (1967), overlapping the archived Citrus Industry account. No specimen, fruit count, observation date, or rootstock is identified; taxonomic formulas on this page do not establish seed/pollen direction.

The post displays only a relative age, so no calendar publication date is recorded. The author says they noticed about six possibly small fruits during an orchard walk but does not clearly identify or claim to have harvested the trees. Separate commenters describe different plants or single fruits; those accounts are not combined. Site, rootstock, maturity, and controlled sampling are not established.

The page shows only a relative age, not an exact publication date. The author describes one fruit from a young tree in North San Diego County; later comments raise identity questions that the author disputes. Rootstock, measured maturity, and sample method are not reported.

The page age is relative; exact comment dates are not displayed. Notes distinguish separate Wekiwa accounts by Malcolm Manners, mrtexas, Sugarcane52, and Docshiva, with differing fruit impressions and limited plant context. No controlled rootstock comparison or unified sample is established; disputed genetic claims are not treated as parentage evidence.

Multi-page forum thread; exact page publication date is not available. Relevant individual posts include Danielle (2020-12-19), ika79 (2020-12-20), and Olive07 (2022-12-19), with separate fruit contexts. Some text is browser-translated from French; the 2022 market fruit is identified as Wekiwa only within the thread. Reports conflict and are not a controlled trial.
