Oregon,Pennsylvania and Arkansas records grown from the 250.5 Wexler. Thanks Jim, Larry/Gerry and Jeremy for giving it a go.

Other potential state records from the 250.5 would be Washington and California, still lots to come from those areas though.

370 and 384.5 aren't fair:) On different genetics to boot. I feel some hybred vigour coming out of crossing those two lines.

Are all the new BG records grown from the seed or are they or where they grafted.

11/10/2018 8:07:35 PM

What is the record for California?
What am I shootin' for?

12/1/2018 2:07:17 PM

The heaviest on any GPC results I can find is the 119 R,Warren 2018.
Should I assume that is the topper???

12/1/2018 2:14:27 PM

Pittsburgh, PA

Dirt - you need to check the past 3 years. I believe that’s when the official GPC weights began. Someone please chime in if I’m wrong.

12/2/2018 12:36:10 AM

That's where I found the info for the 119 , Jay.
Grown by Randy Warren at the 2018 Elk Grove weighoff.

I'm guessing that's the record, although it's possible that a heavier one was weighed previously at a non GPC event...

12/2/2018 4:17:18 PM

Seems doable....

12/12/2018 1:03:05 PM

Hmmmm...Just noticed someone mention a 193 Urena in a previous post.
Now I'm wondering if That's the real record.
