Re: Hybrid


Hello,

I am new to the list, and have taken an interest in non- Hybrid seeds
after much listening to someone on a radio show re: health issues, etc. 

Is it safe to believe that if the package doesn't say Hybrid then it must
be non hybrid, meaning that you could save the seeds and grow again and
again, this radio show I have mentioned has a URL if anyone interested in
growing non-hybrids (you can search for Ark Institute) I don't have the
actual url handy, sorry.

anyway the "guest" on the program discusses how non-hybrid seeds
germinate slower than hybrid, but that you cannot plant seeds of hybrids
anyway because they will not grow.  Now I can't help but wonder in the
produce section of the store what fruits/vegies are hybrid or non?

Tomatoes I find very confusing, how did they get so many different types
if not by making them "in the lab", if you know what I mean.

Now as for brands, I am kinda new to this and would appreciate any advice
anyone has.  Is the brand Burpee ok? or should I buy from catalogs?

Thanks much,

Alda
