What happens if you grow hybrid seeds?
SOMETIMES growing seeds from fruit and vegetables you’ve bought from the supermarket or green grocer can give you good results. But MOST OF THE TIME, you’ll get a throwback like in this video. So be mindful that you may not get what you hoped for and the resultant fruit may be sub-standard in a number of ways. PARTICULARLY be careful of random seeds found in “seedless” varieties - they are almost always hybrids.

    Since Ive only used the jars with lids and screw-on bands, how would you recommend tightening the reused jar lids such as the Bonne Maman? In the States, we use the term 'finger tip tight' to describe how much effort is applied to the 2 piece screw-on band with lid. Should the reused jars with a one piece lid be tightened with more force? Thank you. 😊👍🏻👍🏻

    Hi Beck, just found your website and this is a great video. I have used fruit bags for the last 3 years and they work a treat. I was never able to get any fruiting tomatoes until I started using the bags. I did a study last year into Queensland Fruit fly and also found using yellow sticky traps as well worked along with companion plants of Basil and Marigolds. The advantage of the yellow sticky traps is that you can identify when the fruit fly are active and keep count of the population. Happy gardening -Cheers

    It's a no brainer to use these jars. Our stores offer them empty in fall, and they cost 1 euro empty. The button is only an indicator. The air pressure will push down even flat lids. You cans see an indentation if you look carefully with a flat ruler. They take an effort to open and may pop. Only some mass produced goods come with a button in our stores.

    Thanks for the tips! Mine two year old tree is now flowering for the first time. I notice that your tree is staked. I yanked the stake out of mine this year only to have the tree tilt to one side and I had to re-stake it. Do you know how to encourage stronger root and trunk growth? I think I may have allowed my tree to get a bit top-heavy and I need to prune some branches back this winter.

    You should partner with someone and/or publish results. So sick of pseudo science getting traction when it's typically because the average person can't get ahold of published results of experiments like this.

    I wonder if electroculture just helps the CDC (cation exchange capacity) which helps with water and nutrient uptake in relation to plant growth.
