Commercial quality comparable to Glen Early - fairly short stem. |

Very good |
Firm, but too many doubles and spurs - not commercial for CA. |

culls. |

| Notes: This year the crop in California is
heavy. Also, the relative ripening
times of our varieties with respect to Sequoia (Glenred) vary quite a lot
between |
|
Arvin (furtherest south and earliest), Hanford
(2 hours north of Arvin and next earliest) and Le Grand (another hour north
and latest). |
|
Also thrown into the mix is the Dormex
applications, rootstocks, and John Warmerdam's DC Tech, which has moved
harvest times much earlier. |

| Notes from
Arvin: Bruce Frost is 2/3 finished
picking at the moment. His Arvin Glens
were the earliest, Glen Early two days later, and Sequoia two days after
that. |
|
He is delighted with the quality of all three
of those varieties with very nice sizes. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In his test block: 0B142 looked outstanding and was harvested
with Arvin Glen. 13B291 a real
winner. 13B164 not commercial quality. |

|
| Notes from Warmerdam Packing in Hanford: Difficult to compare apples to apples, as
the Dormex timing and DC Tech are major factors (John's Sequoias are 80%
finished using both). |
|
Without DC Tech, Glen Early will start 5/7 with
very nice quality this year. Sequoias
are starting up soon in several blocks.
Arvin Glen is about 4 days after Sequoia |
|
this year in Hanford. Glen Heart has moved up by about a week
from where we thought it ripened to harvest very close to Sequoia. |
| See the above
evaluations in the Warmerdam Packing test block and one commercial block of
Glenearly at Kingsburg Orchards. |
