KEY STRENGTHS
Big yielder with stalks and roots to match! Excellent early vigor. Strong defensive package leads to consistently strong performance across most soil types. High-level tolerance to anthracnose stalk rot. Handled dry soils well.

WEAKNESSES
Only average on gray leaf spot tolerance.

POSITIONING
Very good all-around hybrid with excellent yield potential! Ear has some flex for both length and girth. Plant this one first. Will reward you for slightly higher plant population and good fertility.
