It's very little, but with a 246,40 lb, I had the first prize in a small local competition.
Thanks to all the growers who have given me some help, Carlos, Jean-Louis, Eric, Gerry, Ernie and the others on BP.com.
Good luck for the world competition!

This was a 1012.5 Papez, given by Ernie (Giant Veggies).
1012.5 Papez x 651 Gadberry (9 july). I had a lot of water problems, because I had to share the water with two horses...So, the horse will pay back in manure for next year... and best results!
Good luck to the german growers for Ludwigsburg competition.

Way to go Sophie, now you have next years mark. to beat. Got some 727.0 Pearce 03 DMG seeds for you to try, 1337 Houghton X 1230 Daletas. Their the wife's seeds but since she ate most of the chocholates you sent I'm sure she can spare a few.
