Okay, I’ve tasted them all and here’s what I feel about each in no particular order:
A-F just like school.
100-42 __ Solid A.
100-43 __ B good but 100-42 is better. The fruits I ate have a bit of astringent aftertaste. I sampled several to make sure it wasn’t one particular fruit. All had some slight astringency on well ripened fruits.
100-45 __ A-/B+ not as good as 100-42
100-46 __ Solid A.
I can’t tell you if 100-42 or 100-46 is better than the other. They’re both excellent. Slightly different but excellent. That would be a toss up I think for anyone taste testing them side by side.
H63A __ A+ best flavor of all.
100-29 ‘Deer Magnet’ __ very good. Solid A-
Deer Magnet is named that because it will still have persimmons on the tree in December.
Pfiffer __ good not great. Do doubt a solid B. Largest one I brought home.
Morris Burton __ very good. Solid A. Smaller fruit but very rich in flavor.
Geneva Red __ astringent when ripe. Only an ornamental. I wouldn’t eat a second one ever.
(OP) seedling of Nikita’s Gift __ Solid A. Renamed to Dr. Kazas
Then I’ll add from recent visits to Red Fern Farm:
Prok __ no doubt a solid A.
Geneva Long __ Solid B. Good but lacking richness.
Lena __ as good as Morris Burton and impossible for me to tell the difference in flavor. Also same size as Morris Burton. Lena is a wild seedling from Indiana.
