I hate to soil your thread but how did they determine the 841.5 Werner was 27% green?

depending on which 1186 it is I'd pick the 1186, 947, and 547. I'm not sure about the others.

when the season is over, we'll help you PICK your fruit, too! lol.
i would plant the 947 Patrick (801.5 Stelts selfed)---it only has one registered-with-AGGC offspring,
the 567 Zunino, and it was very orange--there's a step in the right direction---i would love to plant my 760 Patrick,
(same cross) but that'll have to be next year.

the 912 Holland is the same CROSS as the 963 Stucker, which
is capturing everyone's attention, so there's another one to plant from your list, with some size and orange potential
(801.5 Stelts X 935 Lloyd)...
and one more is the 547 Armstrong, which has grown an 800+,
so that's proof of potential on that one as well. hope i helped! you have a whole bunch of very-deserving seeds there, and good luck with your final choices----'pal2

723 x 935 705 x 845

947 Patrick (723 Bobier 99 x 846 Calai 99)

410 Gipe! Was an awesome plant for me at the test patch this year. It had a very fast growing pumpkin on it that went down to mice. Ben
