I really like this seed based on what it grew last year and am wondering if people are having success with it again this year?

It was the only plant in the patch that was yanked this year. I could not get a fruit set on it. It seemed to abort around basketball size.
I loved the vine. Very aggressive grower, easy to train and bury vines.

I was lucky enough to get a chance at growing this seed(Thanks Carey and Eddy!!) Unfortunately The main broke at about 8 1/2 ft on father's day with at female showing at about 11ft:(. I did get a few going on secondarys but could'nt get the plant big enough by training the secondary behind the break? i do have one on crossed with the 1350 starr with the Fattest stem I have ever seen.
Love to try growing it again if i ever can obtain another seed

My 1408.5 Daletas plant was amazing. Fruit was weighed yesterday and went 15% heavy!
