Yo Matthew,
The seed you are looking for is the next generation down.Go back
to your lists and check them and you will see that a lot of the big ones
come seed that had their grandparents crossed on either the mothers or
fathers side.The genetics seem to sleep for a generation and come out on the
next one down.Just a thought.but seems to be fact.
ALUN
