I posted a message about his previously, but I figured I'd ask again now that most of the weigh-off are over. How did the 1253 do this year? Does anyone have some good insight on this seed, it's preferences, and plant characteristics?

865 pounds, nice cantelouping, but light for size. Fairly uniform pinkish orange color, 1 faint growth ring. Once it quit its growth spurt, it stopped cold and did not continue to creep along like others I've grown. Leaves were fairly small, vine very thick.
