Re: Good or bad seeds?


There is a good friend of mine in Maine that had the Cox 1048 and grew it to
a 840 UOW in his rookie year...it split on him a couple times but continued
to grow 300 lbs after he patched the first split with silcon caulk.  I have
another local friend that grew a 550 with the same seed, so the seed has
potential...I can't say much about where you got it, I have no experience
with the P&P brand.  The 550 was obtained from P&P is all I can offer.
