One of the best true indicators on the AGGC for how certain seeds produce was the listings of which seeds produced individual personal bests. This info levels the playing field for climate and growers experience when determining which seed you might try to pick up for next year. So I will start it off.

The 1421.5 stelts grew my PB of 1546

Not bad information though Phil and Jane with your first entry. It works along with the same basic idea to see which seeds performed best for each grower whether it be an all time personal best or last years best from the patch. Every grower has a different skill level and different climates to contend with. But certain seeds do better for each of us yearly or our all time PB growers. This accumulated data helps everyone track which seeds are proven to be the best producers no matter who you are or where you grow.

Lol G.....thanks for all the input everyone. It is cool to scroll a list of this size and see new and old seeds, and new and old faces and friends. And the more info shared, the easier it is to spot trends and maybe help people when going into the seed auction season to determine which seeds might be the ones to get them over that bar we each set for ourselves. Thanks again for sharing.

My own 1050 Vincent 1286 Daletas X 1495 stelts grew my 1441.5 in 2012 cut on around 08-28-12 still growing, healthy plant for an early weigh off, OTT 414 taping 1520. Grew the 1050 again in 2013 only plant to survive a brutal growing season. Without a stump lost on around 07-26-13 grew me a 1217 to the scale.1050 has only been tried twice by me, can't complain. Growing again in 2014.

I am new at this but my PB was this years 1109 Gebert and was grown from the 1032 Elwood. There is not much of a family tree that I can find for this kin.

11/21/2013 4:52:46 PM

Joliet, IL

Alan, this is exactly why I made this post. Like you said not much history on the 1032..the 1097.5 x 886 crosses would need to know what stock they came from.

But regardless of knowledge of genetic history...proof is in the pudding. Your 1109 may have the magic. Maybe the 1032 is the one already proven by you in a tough state climate. Simila09r to the 1140 Finders.. I believe there are genetic diamonds in the rough so to speak in crosses that produce above and beyond to the regional norm.

Congrats Alan on the 1109 and thank you and all posters for chiming in.
