Yo Kevin,
I grew a 567.5 mombert this year.One of the seed leaves fell off after a
couple of days and slowed the plant growth.By the time the plant picked up
the weather had taken a dive and things never went according to plan with
any of my plants.I do have some seed from my 743lber from 1997 which has
567.5 mombert in it's genetics.The 743 was 21.5% over chart weight.I did try
this seed and grew a fruit that was 23% over chart before a lousy wet summer
ruined that one as well.
