300 pound stock
I am going out on a limb here with some thoughts and no real scientific way
to prove them. I think plants have all kinds of stores. Where they store
what is needed for later. I think seeds are a special kind of store . In
most situations fruit and reseeding is a very gradual sometimes stressed
triggered process and conditions are not always as luxurious as we grow
AG.... so stores are extremely important to there seed survival.
When an AG silver bullet genetically opens the door to rapid growth and the
needs are met the stores are being depleted so rapidly that very few seeds
get the full hormone bag they need. Except for the first developed Perhaps.
who the hek knows......................... or perhaps the plant is grown in
a environment so luxurious the plant doesn't add a Vigor
boost..............but it is surely interesting how most the time big 1000
pounders produce small offspring and then that small off spring pops a
whopper.......MB
