Anyone grow the 991 this year? If so, how'd it do?

I never heard of it. It's not listed on AGGC either.
992 or 996 maybe?

Listed in the P&P catalog as Bobier 991(02)est ... 846 Calai x 845 Bobier.

He used it to pollinate his 992(03), which was a 935 Lloyd plant. So I like the looks of that 992 if the 991 has produced anything of merit...

That is a heck of a cross - one that has done quite well.

Not proven, but if you trust the genetics and give it a chance this one will grow a biggie.

If they had it, there are probably many growers that would give this a shot. There are just too many darn good seeds out there for free!
