I am interested in this topic also. Can you guys explain why you are choosing these crosses? Thanks.

i dunno 'bout anybody else but whenever i make a cross,
it is determined not only by what is AVAILABLE for
that day of the week (which femes are gonna open,
which males are gonna open), but also by the belief that if i/we cross a plant whose seed stock it came from grew something incredible at some point in time with another
plant that at some point in time ALSO grew something noteworthy, then the resulting seeds which will be exclusively my own creation will exhibit a combination
of the characteristics that i had seen and was excited about in the original progeny of the seeds i had originally planted. but, that's just me, lol----

Someone will get mad at me for this, but I dont suggest using the 1233 for anything. To much controversy around that seed.

One cross on that list I would like a lot is 1231 x 1446

I agree with you Tom.

I like the 998 x 1231 and reverse.

998 x 1502 might be an interesting cross as well. The 998 x 1231 has been done a few times. We'll see how it does this year I guess.
