First half of the video is good, but I had to rest my ears.
I was in a book store found a book on sale & bought it, it is Titled Hybrid.
It tells that all garden seeds have been hybrid in europeans countries in the 1700 & 1800 as well as the USA in 1800 & 1900.
So the man right about So called heirloom,open pollinated seeds, it is just a classification for breeder, they are all hybrid for hundreds of years.
Anyone that believe these classifications are not from Hybrid seed that breeders have been breeding for many years, need to read the book.
So they are all HYBRIDS, then there are the GMO, that are really bad, but no one know why, they just are.
I do not use GMO's, but still have not found any proof they are bad.
I do know a man who use them, according to him you can get them though the mail, but they cost 10 time what all Hybrid seed cost.
Now that is a good reason not to use them, beside the fact the market has tons of proven safe hybrids that we all can collect at a good price.
I like trying new hybrids, it is the best way to find good plants that do well in your soil, climate & gardening style.
