Here is a summary of what I have done so far with respect to germination and planting of desired plants. All has gone quite well. All are in 90 degree germination box, paper towel method. 2 649s are already in the ground.
The following 5 are for growing fruit...
6 x 649 Spada 2007. All soaked 8 hours, popped in 24 hours, out of dirt in 48 hours.
1 1066 Vezzolo 2002. 8 hour soak, after 48 hours in bag and the seed was swelling I decided to help, bad idea. Started second and last, 12 hour soak, 72 hours in towel, popped. In dirt, waiting for break out.
1 776.6 Hain 2003 soaked for 8, bagged for 48 and germinated, 2.5 days in bag, popped out.
1 1093 Hunt 2006. Soaked for 8, bagged for 24, in dirt for 48 and out.
1 848 MacKenzie, same as 1093, but out by way more. A very aggressive plant. In fact, the most aggressive out of all the seeds I have started.
These 2 are for pollination only...
753 Pappas 2003. This is an 898 selfed. Will be combined to remake the 1068 Wallace (with selfs) with the 1066 Vezzolo (845 Bobier x self). It will also be crossed with the 776.6 Hain.
I have a 616 Corkum 1998 (which is the only seed that has not popped yet, but it went in last). It is swelling and should pop tomorrow some time. If (along with containing no 900 Lyons) will be crossed with the 848. Basically 1/3 of 616 offspring went light, 1/3 went heavy, and 1/3 was unknown. The difference in genetics is worth the chance I think. Also, it grew a 990 Hebb world record in 2000. I am interested to see what happens.
The Spada (1502 Wallace x 1420 Larue, 1068 genetics, etc.) will be crossed with the 1689 (1225 Jutras x 998.6 Pukos, which contains 1420 and 1446). This will be a heavy weight cross)
The 1093 will be crossed with either the 649 or the 1689, that is to be determined.
