KO Seed Sowing Link

Some of you probably already have this information but if you don't, I thought I would pass it on here because it's a good read. The link is here:

This naturally pertains to KO's hybrids. The part I found particularly interesting however are his seedling color percentages based on the colors of the crosses. For his hybrids only, this applies and I don't know how accurate the percentages actually are for anyone else.

I am curious to see how other hybridizer's seeds tend to measure up to these percentages. This kind of information is worth it's weight in gold to see how your results measure up in your own seed sowing or hybridizing program. This is from 2013 data. It pays to keep careful records of your own experience.
