Paph. roth (‘Black Bird’ x ‘Mont Millais’ FCC/AOS FCC/RHS)

I hope you have better luck with Troy than I did, over the course of three years he didn't produce a single viable flask for me.

I was aware of that. I was just thinking of trying to make Roth flasks available to others.

I pollinated these with ‘World Cup x Raptor’ pollen about one month ago. I also did the reverse with this roth but that spike and pods quickly died.
I think this was successful, maybe there is a slight swelling of the pods. How long before these are harvested and sent of?
Any input on the pods being successfully pollinated would be greatly appreciated!!

I pollinated one of my roths and one died but the other 2 looked just like yours. They have been that way for about 3 weeks

Around 4-6 months is pretty typical for multifloral pods, I cut all of my January pods and took them to my lab this week.

Yes. 4 months is old enough for multis.
