KEY STRENGTHS
Rock solid hybrid! SmartStax® PRO hybrid with top yields, great plant structure, and very good disease protection! Healthy plant with a tremendous stalk. Loves early planting and has strong early vigor and growth. Very good tolerance to Goss’s wilt and handles tar spot very well, too.
WEAKNESSES
Average drought tolerance.
POSITIONING
Just a fantastic overall 110-day SmartStax® PRO hybrid. Excellent rootworm protection along with a great stalk helps this plant shine all season long! This hybrid has some ear flex to it that can be accentuated by pushing fertility and keeping planting populations a little lower. For example, 30,000 can get you 300-bushel corn if conditions allow. Fits the best on your average to good ground but is definitely not a racehorse-type hybrid. Responds very well to products like WeatherKing and Heat Shield to help with stressful weather conditions.
