I've heard of some very aggressive plants from it. I know Steve and Paul had a nice 1247 plant or two they culled. I saw the 1109 cut up today, and man, those were some THICK walls!! 8 to 10 inches thick on the bottom! I'm seriously considering it for next year.

Jack's 1109 was a long shaped fruit.
A very deep thumper @ Chinnok winds. I for one was curious to see what the walls looked like.
Very thick like Ben said with a nice & Orange color.
With a couple of splotches of green.

This one deserves some consideration!

thanks for the info guys,
i grew the 695 handy and it had thick walls,
so with the 801.5 crossed with that, i like the odds.
nice to hear the color was orange too.
