RE: 1262 Emmons x 1260 Weir
Mike,
You're very probably on to something, here. Personally, I've never believed
in silver bullets. Highly polished bullets, maybe. Silver ones, nope.
As to your question, I think there's a sliding scale: As the talent of the
grower increases, the importance of the genetics decreases. Less talent
needs better genetics.
Believe me, genetics are important to a fella like me.

Take what we saw this year Geneva got lucky and lined up the silver bullets?
Ever notice that lately most the HH have a knack at finding silver bullets.
If the fruit is a phenotype product of its environment includes grower) then
what weight do we put on genetics and weight??
Just some nagging thoughts......MB
