My 2 number 1 slots are occupied by my 100 Masterson and a 255 Mitchell. Those would be the 2 spots in the very center of the garden. I think all 12 of my main garden spots are pretty good though. I believe I have many wonderful plants so it wasn't easy to decide. I also think most growers usually have some affinity for growing their own seeds. I wonder what Chris will grow in last year's spot for the 291.

239 Leonard

The 239 Leonard is probably a very popular choice since it is the seed that grew the world record. Mine is in a very good spot straight across from my 255 Mitchell.On the other side of my 255 Mitchell I have the 197 Leonard; which I will Pollinate with my 211 Leonard to re create the same genetic cross that produced the 239 Leonard. It's going to be a fun year!

Last years 291 spot is going to rest this year. (maybe,kinda,sorta.. evil laugh)
The spot next to it(probally as good) gets the 35 kent. 2nd best spot (which ever that is) gets the 239 leonard.
They are all good spots when you consider the 264 spot from last year is ranked 4th ! LOL

That kind of makes me glad the 264 seed found a spot in my patch. :-)
