Hi there! This is my first time on the forum, hope im using it correctly. In my time registering observations in iNat, I´ve found several plants with pigmentation anomalies in their flowers. These are pretty unique individuals, and I´ve searched for projects in which i could include these observations, as well as check out other species´ variations. I found no project of these characteristics, and decided to create it by myself. However, im struggling to establish a sort of filter for this observations, i cant seem to create a project which doesnt bulk upload all of my obs., rather than just those which I choose (in this case, my hypocromatic flowers). Is there anything i can do differently? Thanks in advance:))

Hi Jorge, welcome to the iNat Forum! Sounds like you’re running into the difference between collection projects and traditional projects. More info here: https://help.inaturalist.org/en/support/solutions/articles/151000176472-understanding-projects-on-inaturalist
This project is pretty popular: https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/amazing-aberrants

There is also a project specifically for hypochromatic organisms:
