I will grow unproven seed this year,plus the 291 Kent which in my opinion is still unproven(nothing real big has been grown)from it.As you all know I love going out on a limb.So we will find out if I show up with a bag over my head at weigh-off or a smile the undertaker cant remove.lol

It is. Tied for 5th place. I grew a 240 on the 35 Kent which was grown on the same plant as the 291.

Yes I see the 251 Dawson is the Kent 291,I just looked at my seed packs.So I guess the 291 is proven.I have a great feeling about the 291,I think it will produce the 300 lber this year.
