Some members have been growing it for over 10 years but regardless the University of Florida did a interesting study that included the Tigua. It had the fastest cycle time at 372 days, Prata Ana was second at 442, third was FHIA-03 at 453, and the rest were over 500.
Mysore 616, FHIA-17 690.


IMHO, if you're growing in Florida and want large bunches in a short amount time add a Tigua to your collection.
