My 1130 Jutras Est (1002 Jarvis * 1221 Werner) has its first female just about ready, It is the strongest SQ plant in the patch. My 1486 Jarvis, went ribbon vine, hacked it off, secondarie is starting to run decent 3-4ft, 800 Neily was a back up, in pot a little to long and just starting to get adjusted, and running 3-4ft. 1236 V/M of my dad's was late planting no heat, no house, not much soil amending, etc. about 5-6ft now. All of them have males available. If I choose the nicest plant, I self it!!
The ribbon vine on the 1486 scares me, The 800 was beautiful out of the gate, I just kept it potted to long, and its side by side with 1486 right now. too many choices, any thoughts?
thanks

800 Neily has always been an awsome plant for me and has consistently thrown large green fruit...out of those choices, i'd try to lock in that color and vigor and go with the Neily.

800 Neily for sure.
