Mine is the 1450 Wallace and the 1231 Pukos. Both are pretty easy to manage plants.

My Dads best is the 664 Liggett and the 1385 Jutras.

They are moving well, but so far 1149 Pukos and 1423 Wallace are aggressive!

6/5/2008 10:15:06 PM

No Place Special

998 pukos is by far best plant here

The 1689 Jutras is my most aggressive plant but the 1290 Poirier is big in every way (big leaves, huge flowers, thick vine ect.) except for square footage.

The 1068 larue is my biggest and strongest so far. The 1450 Wallace is second.

Before I tried to kill them, my 956 Zuhlke was my best. the 1248 Ford and 1348 Hester where my next best. The 1348 Hester is the only plant that didn't burn up from the insecticide I sprayed on them. It looks like it is going to be a good one.

my 1068 is by far one of the best ,most agressive plants of all 1068 we have planted in the past.
the problem is it really only meand that. its a fast grower.
nothing else can be derived from a fast grower until the results are in.

Pukos is beating Wallace by a little. both look great. Both also have 1068 in them so I am not surprised.

6/6/2008 10:00:34 AM

Westford, MA

845 Bosworth and 1296 Kurkowski are ahead. But at only 2 ft they are only 6-8"ahead of my 614 Hebb,986 Christen, 1185.5 Bortner, and 917.4 Wolf

With 3x 90 + degree days forcast. I'm hoping for a little more action.

1402.5 Bobier by far, nearly 5 ft main vine already while the 1502 Wallace is just now laying down to make a run on the vine. 1011.5 Checkon was put in late and looks to be double vining, time and the next week will help me decide on this plant.

It's interesting to look at these answers. Ask the same question in September and it'll be completely different. I've got a 1556.5Werner growing as well, and it's my worst grower, yet I refuse to give up on it. My best is my own 988Stidwill which is already forming a female, but I have no idea if come September it'll still be my best.
It's a marathon, not a sprint...

Our own 1112.5 is ahead of everything else followed by the 1180.5 Pukos. Of course like PaP said that dosen't mean anything until the results are in... Good luck to all!

1502 Wallace followed closely by the 1180 Daletas. The 1180 was started 2 weeks after my other plants but catching up fast. Very aggressive grower.

6/6/2008 11:46:24 AM

well, although none of my plants are yet as impressive
as the ones i am reading about, lol, my own seed,
the C-106 (cull #1, '06) (582 Hester X 869.5 Calai)
is doing dramatically better than the rest, followed
closely in the same patch by the 772.2 Poirier, then probably the 746 Snyder...
nice cross ideas developing here, i'll bet! eg

6/6/2008 11:56:50 AM

1200 Est. Checkon is really growing quickly followed by the 1068 Papez. Both are seeing 6"-8" of main growth per day.

My 1317 Oliver was started a week after the rest but is the best right now vary aggressive 2nd the 1470 Wallace

983.5 Isom (1370X1225)leads the pack, 937.5 Isom is second, 1689 Jutras and 1041.5 McKie 15% behind. But remember, there is not all that much correlation between plant size and . . .

746 Snyder is my strongest with the 629 Snyder right behind it and the 1012 Hester is strong too. I'm a bit surprised by how strong the 746 has been so far. It is way ahead of my 1385 Jutras. For the second year in a row the 1334 Daletas is the slowest starter.

Our 901 Hunt (1093 Hunt x 898 Knauss) is about 1' ahead of the 1689 Jutras & about 4' longer than the 1631 Mckie. The 1631.5 didn't have a soil heating cable under it like the other two though. I expect it to start catching up soon now that the warmer weather is here.

6/7/2008 8:51:44 AM

1161-07 Holland is kicking tail. 1155 Frantz is not too far behind. Could use some heat though. Haven't seen 60 deg. in a couple weeks.
