From what I can tell, the combination (1068 Wallace x 998) Pukos and reverse crosses (998 Pukos x 1068 Wallace)have grown at least 68 fruit over 1000 lbs. As expected it is surpassed only by it's parents
#1-845 Bobier x 898 Knauss and reverse- 95 over 1000 lbs.
#2- 1420 Larue x 1446 Eaton and reverse- 86 over 1000 lbs.

The 1068 Wallace x 998 Pukos and reverse crosses should jump to 1st place either this year or in 2011.

Andy, some good info there. I tried looking for that info but could only find (10) 1068x998 and reverse offspring that went over 1000 lbs. Where can I find the info that you have?

Thanks Mark, the 1385 Jutras alone is responsible for growing 45 fruit over 1000 lbs. I got the info from AGGC. It's pretty impressive because almost all 1068 x 998 and reverse are 07 and 08 seeds. The 1446 Werner is the only one listed that is older, 2006.

1385.5 Jutras X 1180 Pukos.
That'll be the cross to go 2000+.
