I'm ready for this long cold winter to end. I have settled on my AG lineup for 2014. 220 DeBacco (2009 Wallace X 1725 Harp[2009 clone]), 829 Young (2009 Wallace X 1725 Harp), 1478 Scherber (1655 Ford X 220 DeBacco), 1220 Johnson (1421 Stelts X 220 DeBacco), 1357 Stevens (1476 Hopkins X self), 454 LaRiviere (220 DeBacco X 2009 Wallace), 432 Wexler (220 DeBacco X self), 335 Scherber �11 (F: 1421.5 Stelts [1663 Zoellner] x M: 1161 Rodonis [1725 Sweet]) 7 of these will go into the competition patches and one will go into a genetics patch with my 862 McWilliams.
I'm excited about my long gourd lineup: 118.5 McWilliams, 115.13 Wright, (grew my 118.25), 139.75 Ansems, 137.25 Ansems, 114.5 Stivers. My 118.25 was still growing when picked, an with a couple more days it might have equaled David Miller's state record. I'm going to cross it with Richard Stivers' 114.5 to create an "Anamosa cross"
