| Yes, I believe it is 86 or 88 degrees, I wasn't stating that higher temperatures were deterimental, just that they were of no additional benefit. After watching many of these hybrids for several years and observing their maturity as compared to accumulated GDU's as measured by the Mesonet network, several of them are reaching maturity 7-14 days earlier than would be predicted by the mesonet data (Hence the term, "Relative Maturity"). The assumption therefore is that they must be continuing to accumulate GDU's at higher temperatures. Dekalb 50-20 is another hybrid that really seems to demonstrate this.
