Here go – another season of frustration, bewilderment, persistence, believing, sacrifice, excitement and continued wonderment of exactly why do I do this.?!
    PGPGA Auction last night went well, more pricey than willing to tell wife, but I got some REALLY great seeds: 4 from >2000 pounders, a bunch from > 2000 crosses including the 2624 Willemijns and a total of 20 first or 2nd generation 2000 +. All for 2 vines in a 900 sq ft patch – a big guy and a bunch of orange. Somehow I wound up with 6 seeds from 20’ sunflowers. Cool. We plant a line of sunflowers out back each year – this line will be awesome!
    Best bet for BIG is 1893Daletas by 2469Daletas x 2624Willmijns and best bet for Orange 852Toboyek’21 by 1785 Ford x Self HD Champion. So let’s see what the season brings. Good luck to all!
