(251 Kent x 209 Schinicker ) Tons of my 132 Pridgen UOW.(209 Schinicker x open) 220 Brinkley(some Mudd genetics). Hopefully Santa will bring something new. Would love a 291 Kent,316 Edwards and a 255 Mitchell.

No melons for me this year. Just kins & maybe a long gourd on the barn.I need to focus on that World Record Orange Pumpkin! It really does take away from your kins growing other stuff.After I grow the world record then I will be back to get Chris Kents title.LOL

316 Edwards & 296.50 Barber: When you look at the genetics on these two and there were both 5 lobe melons,these two are a must for me. I wish I had more time so I could grow more because there are a lot of great seeds out there. I only plant what I can give 100% to and at 72 that's 3 plants.

Had two 296 Barbers. One never germinated and one gave me the prettiest plant out of 10 I started last year. Wasnt in the ground 2 weeks before the neighbors dog got loose one day and dug it up. I was so mad the neighbor still avoids me 7 months later !
