Rog, would be nice to grow em' all but since I have room for only 2 plants, I'd plant the 1225.4 and 1420. Tough choice but nice to have!!

I'd plant the 1225, then when 10 1000+ fruit come off of the 1253 this year, I'd trade it for a 670 in the fall but that's just me lol.

Ah ha, a fellow NC grower is showing us part of his hand now too. Now I can see what at least one of the plants I am up against. My vote would be 1420 first, and 1225.5 second. That is not only by genetics, but by color also, which is also important to me. Great choices Rog.

I grew the 1225 last year which produce a heavy walled oval fruit that split on me in late August in the mid seven hundred pound range.

I have a 1420 that I may never grow.

The 1253 will be widely planted, and it is one of my leading choices.......

Personally, I'd grow the 1420 Larue out of those three. I like the offspring I've seen out of it. They all seem to have nice size potential.

I'm still one that believes that a curtain seeds do better in different regions of the country. I could be checking how well those seeds did in a warmer climate, those seeds seem to do real well in the northeast and the northwest,I'm not sure they will do all that well in the southeast, Hope you the best of luck...mark
