Re Selfing

Here is something only I would have tried {LOL}...yet another weird experiment with my clones...{LOL}
A 991 Hunt seed grew one of my friends 354 pounder { which was abused, neglected, and uncared for}. As well as keeping the 746 Scherber clone going last winter, I kept a cutting alive off that plant to see what someone did if they cared for it. Len Stellpfug grew a 561 pounder from that cutting this year. I kept one alive in a neighbor yard for a pollinator, and used it to pollinate the 354 Eiffler plant grown from seed.
I pollinated the 991 last year with one of my 723 Bobier male flowers, which is the 354's father.  The 354 was raised by my nephew until August 1st {when he moved out}, but was ignored when it didn't set fruit when he wanted. I took it over, set fruit as quickly as possible, and still got a 344 and a 228 in the last month. The vines were not buried until Mid August when I had "some free time". 
The father cross made was from it's "mother"...confused?

                      991 Hunt 1999 {F}
                                  x
                      723 Bobier 1999{M} 
 
354 Eiffler plant grown from seed then cross pollinated with 991 Hunt clone male flowers...which ended up being 344 & 228 Sawtelle 2001 seeds...
 
                      344 / 228 Sawtelle 2001=
 
                      354 Eiffler 2000 {F}
                                    x
                      991 Hunt 1999 clone {M}
 
Now then, how do we catagorize this kind of cross {LOL}...
 
Just yet another thing to brain storm over...like I really needed to throw that one in there to add to this discussion...
