WHAT A DIFFERENCE A CULTIVAR MAKES!
Here are four plots in our cultivar vs. Macrophomina trial. All were planted in mid-Oct 2020. Note the difference in plant size and canopy architecture. Some are small and grow low to the ground while others are tall and vigorous. These growth characters make a huge difference when it comes to finding and harvesting the fruit.
