Yep, I got a whole bunch of males. My bees love them which I find very  
interesting.

So if I take cuttings from the female tree I should be able to get them  
to root and they'll stick to being female. There is also a number of  
female trees a couple miles away. Would it be a good idea to diversify?  
Can they be started now?

Oh, and is there an easy way to get the seeds out of the persimmon pulp?

And I noticed with the fruit I collected that some fruit had fewer  
seeds and it made me wonder when breeding/selecting seeds does one pick  
large fruit with their large seeds or the fruit with small size yet  
small and fewer seeds? What would be the wiser aim?
