In the late eighties,
I also tried several "batches" with Gamma radiation at a "Medium strength".
This was done on both seed, and just sprouted seedlings. I could not
determine any changes in any of the material, from the "norm" . I still
have some of the plants ( waiting for the wonderfull effects to "set in" ) I
don't think it is worth the effort.
