WOW!! How about these crosses.I think you are right on Brooks when you say these could quite possibly be THE best crosses for 2010 and the 1520Sperry is apparently the sngpg seed of the year for 2011.
1520(1385x1725
1325(1161x1725
1314(1725x1385
1252(1288x1725
1222(901x1725
and last but not least 1105(1421x1725).I can't wait for some of these beauts to hit the dirt!!!!

His 1314 grown off the 1725 was 20% over estimate and he pollinated everything in the patch with it! Genious!!

steves 1314 was a monster in the making for a good part of the season. i had considered it his best opportunity in the patch.
unfortunately it had a freekish looking indented blossom that gave him problems.
whe will never know now what might have been.
i think that 1314 could do some damage in 2011 as well.

All of the Steve Sperry 2010 seed cross's I think will be some GREAT seeds to grow, heck, look at everything he crossed the 1725 with...All the mothers are the top seeds out there! Steve was really looking ahead when he did those cross's.

I cant wait to see whats in store for any cross out there that has the 1725 as the pollinator

Million dollar question though Carl... which seed to grow?..All of them?,,ha!

I think you will see alot of those Sperry seeds being grown this year to answer that question for next year... but do you really want to wait untill next year to grow a personal best when you can do it this year?,,LOL

Million dollar question is right Brooks.1520 and the 1314 will hit the dirt here.I was so excited about these crosses i just had to purchase 2 lots.The 1725 is just getting going and look what he crossed into it.These seeds will be going for a whole lot more money next year,mark my words.

My plan here in Ashby, MA is to plant Steve Connolly's 1674.5 and Steve Sperry's 1520 and cross them. I only have room for two plants. These are the two I'm picking. I have two backups as well 1441 Gansert and 1414 Rodonis.
