What other seeds do you have?
Not sure of the father, but the mother was a 255 Mitchell I believe.
Good genetics there.
You have any more 282s?
You could sib it and preserve genetics.

Pizza any of those would be good crosses.
I've been trying to get 291Kents for a couple years now.
Always out bidded in the auctions !
Frank Mudd always grows nice melons.
Any of those Mudds a 199.5 ?
I would go with the 291 Kent myself,but any of the Mudd seeds are good as well.
