Cole, you seem to be the guy that I should be following.
I am not a market grower but then I hate to waste time and space trying to find a few winners. That happens to be like 1 out of 3 or 4 that I try. This year I am trying about 11 new ones. So by statistics I should end up with 3 o4 winners..This is even though that I do exhaustive search, reading so many reviews and comments. I stay away from the varieties with little peers review, no matter how the seed sellers describe them. And my number one criterion is decent production.
