I have some great orange seeds and would like to have a second opinion on what to grow for size and colour.

These are the seeds that I have for orange:

777 Young '11 (993 V/M x 1059 V/M) Definately getting grown.

980 Fredricks (1544.5 Revier x 1610 Lieber) Definately getting grown.

1000 est martin11 (1495 Stelts x 1789 Wallace) Definately getting grown.

795 Dunn '12 (980 Fredricks x 985 Werner) Will see how this seed grows this year.

993 V/M (772 Poirier '06 x 998 Pukos '05) Not sure if I should use this seed as a pollinator.

I will hopefully be getting a 811 Gerhardt too, which will definately get a spot.


Cheers and God bless,
Ben

I'd go for the biggest genetics and research offspring for color. Of course, there's always those recessive genes...

I'm not sure how orange that 1789 Wallace cross will go... but it will go big.

I would use the 777 as the main pollinator. The 993 isn't consistent enough for my likes. If we were talking 1059 that'd be a different story. Good luck- jim
