My favorite 2 seeds are the 723 Bobier and 1370 Rose. Couldn't find either of them the last 2 years, so I grew the 227 Leland (723 x 1370) as my consolation. Now I have found a 1370 Rose, so I am searching high and low for a 723!

I just need to get Brooks involved, and as determined as he is to find particular seeds, this should be a slam dunk!

Well heres a couple with great crosses that I am definetly gonna grow.. 791 Van Hook which is a 1041 McKie * 1450 Wallace./ 907 Van Hook which is a 1231 Pukos * 998 Pukos/ 891 Van Hook which is a 1173 Macari * 1450 Wallace / 735 Van Hook which is a 1112 Daletas * 1450 Wallace. All these crosses are great and contain genetics that I would love and gonna plant. These crosses all broke 700 pounds first year out and grown in the heat and drought of Kentucky. I believe some of these seeds will be the next big thing.
