randy in walton

Walton N.y.

i've always been impressed with the 707 toftness it's done well for us in the past and the walls are usually over 6" thick the 1376 bobier is another our 1459 was 12" thick by the stem the bottom was between 8-9" thick and so was the top not a rib split or dill ring inside the only thin spot was around the "inny" blossom end and that was still 3" thick

my 1085 grown off the 1334 Daletas hardly had a cavity from what the fellow told me that retrieved the seeds. Almost 25% over it stands to reason.
