239 Leonard grew Chris's 291 Kent, so those two, I would guess are sorta up there. Another one that hasn't been mentioned yet, is 285 Edwards. Although it was a dmg weight, it is a cross of 157 Bright x 168 Johnson...both have been mentioned here already!!! I am hoping to cross 285 x 291 this year!!! Peace, Wayne
PS...will also be growing a 35 Kent, and hope to cross w/291 Kent. Grown late on same plant as 291, but crossed w/ 113 Kent, instead of 157 Bright. Also, to try and be true to Kentucky!!!! 251 & 178 Mudd will be in the melon patch!!!
