This 106-day hybrid is like a grizzly bear – powerful yield potential with the root strength of a full-grown boar, but don’t rush it out of hibernation too early. She prefers to wake up when the soil’s good and warm, but once she’s up, watch out – you’re looking at some serious trophy potential. 

Built with a unique profile – riding lower to the ground than most – and sporting a white cob with deep kernel set, this one stands out in your lineup like a platinum-colored bass in your limit. The root system handles stress like a seasoned guide in rough weather, and you can trust it out west where the winds test everything’s strength. 

Field placement: 

  • Flexible north/south zones  
  • Western wind zones  
  • Stress environments  
  • Premium test weight  
  • Early harvest schedule  

Bottom line: Plant this one last when the soil’s warm, but put it first on your harvest list. Like any smart hunter knows – timing is everything. Get the timing right, and this hybrid will fill your yield tag. Just keep an eye out for stalk anthracnose and fusarium – they’re like wolves at the den that you’ll want to stay ahead of. 

LATE TO BED, EARLY TO RISE: Plant it last when soils are warm, harvest it first - timing is everything with this deep sleeper
BUILT DIFFERENT: Rides lower than most with a white cob and deep kernels, backed by root strength that laughs at stress
TERRITORY MARKED: Flexes north and south of zone, stands strong in western winds, but keep watch for those anthracnose and fusarium predators
