What seeds either big or orange do you think are not getting the attention they deserve?

1472 mathison
1544 mathison
1894 mathison
I don,t see where these have seen an abundance of dirt and can grow big but go fairly cheap in auctions especially when compared to unproven seeds.

Neither big nor orange but...........there is a world record producing plant that was selfed for a genetics cross. It's seen very little dirt but it will again here because I got a glimpse of what it can do. It's the SAME plant, repeat: THE SAME PLANT!! that grew the 2009 Wallace!

282 Scherber 13

The 282 would of gotten planted more but it was a tricky seed to germinate, it was my number one choice last year and I had two not come up. If you plan on trying it read brotherdave's diary from last year for a lesson worth learning on hard to germinate seeds. The 1442 was its back up and it just never took off for me and I would love another shot at both of them.

And I would say growers own seeds don't see enough dirt. I'm guilty of this.

How bout BIG and ORANGE > 1450 Wallace X 1810 Stevens, and the reverse. 1450 was shiny orange, and 1810 a spitting image of the 1662 SteltZ..... HD Winner two years in a row for Jack who growZ 1000 feet higher in altitude that Wizzzy. I grow at 5300 ft above sea level. Sure wondering what this seed would do at altitude......

Any seed grown, not enough growers trust or make a cross they actually grow the following year.

OMG, I don't know where to start. 1198 Gibson 07, same cross as 904 Stelts and 23% heavy, never planted !!
980 Klinker- 1161 Rodonis x 904 Stelts, same cross ass 1495 Stelts, can't find any info...
967 Reid and 1023 Stelts- 1420 Larue x 1370 Rose- never planted.
1096 Privitera, 1350 Wallace, 1309 Hebb- same cross as 1385 Jutras. Could go on and on but there are too many that will never get recoginized.

Who knows,prob. 80% of promising crosses dont get tested. The 1140? finders comes to mind.

Tooo many to list. Not enough space money and time... When I hit Power Ball, I'll plant as many as I can, lol.

I'm with brotherdave. 282 Scherber have been overlooked. It is Ron Wallace's plant that grew the world record selfed. I'll be growing this seed next year.
