Just as your video was concluding, it dawned on me that in the next few years or so, certain domestic farmers or backyard farmers who relies on seeds to grow their food won't be able to do these anymore without going through the big guys who will be controlling every aspect of food security in the US. So so scary!!!
This is already happening....see Monsanto...they trade mark seeds...
@@shixkenya1203 not for long
@@gaurdianrayrhama1583 Explain.
Exactly! Greed!! Greed is killing us as a society in this country. God given plentiful seeds that Americans once shared freely will soon be patented and cashed in for the rich companies such as Monsanto! I can’t wait to move. Been planning to move from this country now for months and can’t wait until I’m living in a more caring society where organic food is the norm!
It’s because we’re living in the end times! The old Heaven as well as this Earth will soon pass away! The Son of MAN will soon come from the clouds of Heaven with power and great glory to gather His people!
Watermelons with seed's taste sooooooo much better and sweeter.
Everyone's dream as kids was to have seedless watermelons, but I'd rather have them grown naturally, so I'm glad I've never seen one here in Italy.
Same here..:)
im Amaru-khan ..over here seedless causes issues to alot of us
I liked the seeds even as a kid...
It's old folk with ni teeth who hate seeds
They are gmo, even if it did occur naturally it would die off. Food with seeds has information passed on linking you to better health.
How old are you?
“Watermelon and grapes had seeds when I was a kid”
Jasmine V she’s prolly 14 or 15 yrs old ha
That what she said
she is not nearly as old as I am. 65 and remember seedless oranges and grapes early to mid 60s.
Seedless fruits are usually less tastier. I don't like them.
Agreed with limes, seedless limes are too inferior to normal limes.
Weird.
yes watermelon with seed here tastier than seedless
Make watermelons seeded again
@WolraadWoltemade 1652 it is really sad that we cant buy and eat seeded watermelon. How I wish more store would sell seeded watermelons.
I prefer to plant seeds to grow my own food without having to be a scientist or a farmer.
Exactly
I feel like foods are created in labs now =/
I love farmers. They are the backbones of any country
Bill gates bought 90% of the farmland in America and he owns 80% of beyond meat so you see the agenda, they're trying to take nature's place.
Agreed
If anyone doesn’t know what GMO is must have not grown up in America. Almost all the food we grow is GMO. Even the Organic Food is GMO!
I just looked crazy in the whole food asking why mandarins are seedless. It’s sad. Clones, hybrid will not enter this gut
Whatever people say, seedless are unhealthy
Exactly, and why is there predominantly seedless fruits in the stores! The customers didn't ask for it! 🤨
Please explain how seedless is unhealthy. The only difference is they are not fertilized (or pollenated). I would think they would be exactly the same, except without seeds. Please provide research or documentation to prove your assertion.
how came seedless fruit unhealthy? were they poisonous? or were you just another hippies?
I miss seeded watermelons, they taste better. Spitting seeds at friends and family is also enjoyable.
@@brianmcdonald6519 so you want to eat fruits that are not natural?
Anytime food or anything that is altered from how God made it, its modified grapes,watermelon etc Is GMO
I'm so glad someone else remembers what the bible said about food!
I don't think eating seedless is what God intended
Agreed. How wrong!
True!
I agree
That's your problem you thought, but don't know.
Facts.
In india you can easily find fruits with seeds.
Exactly. It's only in Western countries.
does anyone else think this oddly sounds like an advertisement ?
Very interesting content as usual, Nicole. Last month I went to a seminar about GMO in Indonesia. Guess what's the biggest GMO crops we have here: corn, and rice, and shallot!
As someone who majored in biotech, I can say that in chemistry, natural vs artificial is irrelevant. For example, water. Water is two hydrogens bonded to an oxygen. It doesn't matter AT ALL whether that water came from a mountain stream, a dirty puddle, a beavers urine, or if someone deliberately bonded the atoms together themselves. As long as two hydrogens are on an oxygen, it's water. (Provided that it does not contain impurities) The same goes for vanillin, the "artificial vanilla flavor" and it also goes for dna. Chemistry doesn't care how something came to be. Just because something isn't from nature doesn't mean that it's inherently harmful, or even different.
Right
i prefer moma nature
Your videos are always so informative. Thank you so much for making them!
Thank YOU for watching!
3:25 I planted a Cara Cara tree 16 years ago when I was a kid and I love that it's a self fertilizing/seedless orange tree! Lots of fruit every year from one tree! (Bought the seedling at a Florida gas station on the way home from Orlando :)) Citrus trees are becoming more popular in SE Georgia.
Until there's no tree, then no more fruits
@@active_ome2957 Huh? The tree is fine. There was a cold snap December 2022 where it went below freezing for a few days and the tree lost it's leaves, but it's recovering fine. There isn't going to be as much fruit this year as normal because the tree had to put it's energy into growing its leaves back.
@@i2chip I mean how will you be able to grow more trees without seeds
@@active_ome2957 Oh, two different ways that I can think of. For one they aren't completely seedless! It is possible for a Cara Cara orange to have a seed or two, especially if the tree has been cross-pollinated with another type of orange tree. You can grow Cara Cara orange seeds, but the resulting tree will not be a true Cara Cara orange tree. This is because Cara Cara oranges are a hybrid variety of orange, and seeds from hybrids do not typically produce true offspring.
Another way is cloning, which is very simple when you know what you're doing. Cloning is VERY common and the cloned plant will be genetically the same as the parent plant.
If you go to a garden store and buy any fruit tree there's a very high chance that that tree was cloned.
agreed, seedless fruits might exist, but they do not taste the same than fruits with seeds. Seedless fruits have less taste, watery, wishy-washy
lenny108
No. It literally tastes the same.
That's placebo for you.
Lol wishy washy
Lmaoo wishy washy 😂😂
So if fruits aren’t organically grown but if they have seeds there still good for you because it’s hard to find organic fruit in a variety
DO NOT EAT SEEDLESS FRUITS. No matter how good someone tries to make it sound. DON’T EAT THEM.
Why do they want to take seeds out of fruits, what if there is no more fruits left.
I hate that we can't find any grapes with seeds at Krogers!
I am always waiting for new episodes. I love your channel
Love from 🇵🇭
Kamusta kabayan.
No matter what you say or how you want to justify, this is not natural, which means, it IS generically modified. Its now ro a world wide point where you cant find the seeds . If the fruits were "variations" as you say, where do we find the okd school fruits?
I just want to clear up that genetically modifying organisms is not something wrong (with regulations ofcource) this process mimics nature but just enhances and speeds up the process. Love ur videos btw!!
3:05 talking about seedless grapes & the process that occurs within the fruit as the plant naturally rises from the greenhouse. Epic & informational as a type 1 diabetic. ❤
Seeds have a purpose
Thank you, this really helps me a lot since I'll be taking agricultural course in college.
This is such an interesting topic! I think I commented on the cucumber video about how we have seedless in the UK but you tend to normally have seeded. We also have seedless grapes. Conversely, we have seeded watermelon and most of our citrus is seeded; a notable exception being Persian limes. Parthenocarpy and Stenospermocarpy came up in our exam paper.
Not save!! What the government has to do is closed down one location and we all be out of food etc..
that much of information in under 6min .. thanks a lot miss sunshine!
🌻🌻🌻
PS: there are plants that produce fruits with viable seeds WITHOUT fertilization. The egg cell just replicates as if polen had been there
but does it hold the same nutritional value ??
I would like to know that as well
I love your videos. So educational!
I missed those seeds in watermelons and I'm not old because watermelons are often drawn with seeds on. This appearance is in everyone's mind in any age.
The critic to seedless fruits is pointing that farmers become dependent of seed producer, since they don't have a seed from their own fruits to regrow 😊
And the seed producers love it
Everything is genetic modification. Cross pollinating different tomato plants in your backyard garden is genetic modification.
That's genetic selection. Modifying is going against the nature of the produce.
@@KHobbies_cina Changing genome randomly by selection or changing it by direct modification. The later is just more effective way of the former. "Against the nature" is just an empty catchphrase.
Seedless are forbidden by God to be eaten. Genesis 1:26.
@@KHobbies_cina genetic selection is still modification. You're modifying the genes of what you're making.
@@arrivalml1096 I don't let some guys who wrote a book to control people 2,000 years ago tell me how to live.
Wait, so all I have to do to epically prank these orange farmers is to plant an orange tree of one different variety near them somewhere? Haha that would be so funny I am not collecting orange cuttings right now.
Been looking for videos on seeded and seedless fruit and veggies. Thanks
Make watermelons seeded again!
Heterozygous. If you eat a delicious apple, and plant the seeds- it will most likely be terrible. Same with the window Avocado. Grafting, rootstocks, scions, bud/Tgrafts, etc would be an incredible, simple topic that most people simply don't understand. When you buy a fruit tree at the nursery, it will have a scar about 12 inches from the dirt. Look into it, it's fascinating, make a video about it!!!
We've done a bit about grafting. Check out our apples episode!
Hi! I love all your videos, just one question, where would you recommend buying seeded grapes?
I can find them in every store around me. In NJ. Red and green.
@@krystofeliska Thank you for the response :)
I'm so glad you gave actual informative facts about GMO's and not give false information about it. A lot of people thought that you were bashing GMO's but you're not. Your literally just talking about seedless fruits lmao. I love the video so much. It's very factual and I learned something new ☺. As always, a really great video ☇
I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
natural is paramount...nothing compares
i will do the bashing.. gmo irritates my system
Love the the video!! You answer questions I have always wondered about!
Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge.
Thank you so much for watching!
yay back with another video!!! :DDD
Listening to her is so soothing
my childhood is pointless
Fun fact many grocery stores still have the PLU code for seeded grapes. If you eat a fruit with seeds just spit out the seed in a bowl or napkin and toss them in the trash or save them an try growing a garden.
*Get this:*
I got a gay tree in my Yard. Will it show Parthanocarpy?
Stay tuned.
THE COMMENT DOGGO I would love to see a gay tree 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
Great information!! love it Thanks
If I’m not a front desk receptionist I’ll be a farmer with some dogs, cats and chickens. Maybe some goats too
Yohana Puspa yes!
I just love it when people assert a claim without providing any proof of evidence about it.
right!!
my proof is they make us sick and congested so i don't eat them anymore... to hell with what scientists say... i trust science and gmo is foreign to the human body..les you all our gmo people then that crap is for yall
I learned a lot in this episode. Great work.
My pomelo tree is only of its kind in my colony but it still possess seeds and yet yield is sufficient for us and we share some to our neighbors and sell them too
I was just thinking about you today! What a funny synchronicity. I always look forward to your informative clips. I've shared this one to spread the wisdom!
Thanks for this always wondered abt it.
GMO foods aren’t bad. The poisons that they spray on roundup ready plants are what’s actually bad for us. We eat the plant, the plant has roundup inside of its structure, we eat roundup.
What you say makes sense, but when I trace back the danger claims about glyphosate, they all come from the anti-GMO movement. I would really like to see some well-researched explanation of the danger or safety of Roundup herbicide.
commenting before watching the video and i want to say that we need more amazing videos, yours are one of the best in youtube, informative and direct to the point with you unique and amazing sense of humor.
Thank you so much, Fadi! Glad to have your support.
We have a loquat tree in my home and the seeds look like chestnut 🌰, 4 years a go we were surprised because our fruits were seedless ! And it only happened once the next year it was back to normal! A mystery...
This video is very educational. Thank you.
I love to see when you upload! Thank you for your wisdom :)
Occasionally, a mutant fruit tree or plant will produce seedless fruit. That plant is selected, and cloned over and over, to produce the same fruitless ..."fruit".
i have never wanted to be a Botanical Engineer/Scientist until watching this video.
I will not eat those without seeds as my grandfather who lived 104years, warned me about them.
I’m gonna sound super clever sharing this information oh so casual 😝. Another great vid...thanks
Ha! Do it!!!
I just ate a seedless watermelon. Thx for the information
Yay! Another video! Great stuff!
Thank you so much for teaching us on these subjects! So informative 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I always wonder...🤔
Now i know 😊
And it makes me happy seeing trees and fruits! Love them!
Good morning here in the philippines..l like your informative videos about fruits and vegetables... thank you for sharing...
Good morning! Thanks for watching!
Thx for the new upload 🥭🍉🍍🍓
What a way to start my day. I had zero idea about seedless anything. It’s all about profit from us Americans. I sure do enjoy every video. You have so much character. Love it. Thank you. ❤️
Have a great day, Dwayne!
wish GMOs didn't get such a bad rep. they can be drought and pest resistant to lower water usage and pesticides, and can produce higher yields to feed our growing population. and besides, humans have been selectively breeding crops to produce the best tasting or yielding varieties forever. now we can do it more quickly and efficiently with gene editing.
I think it scares people more than anything. Its new and uber scientific which always gets backlash
Big facts. I'm saddened they do get a bad reputation. ☹
I don't have a problem with GMO's, 'Golden Rice' and similar are beneficial. GMO is being used more and more to enforce 'DRM' and as a vanguard for extremely litigious enforcement of plant, 'copyright'..
you all must be gmo organisms...
I want seeded produce. Seedless is forced on us.
All food is genetically modified. What do people think selective breeding does?
Selective breeding creates hybrids, not GMO's. I think she means modified with synthetic chemicals, not natural processes.
That's just ignoring the environmental factor. A hybrid sure is slightly different. But getting from the old corn to modern corn wasn't hybridized it was selected. And "naturally" modified means that the seed or plant mutated due to some environmental abnormality. Hell it could be a random gamma ray that hits the embryo. Not all radiation is man made..... what you are defining is Genetic Engineering not Genetic Modification. The commentor was correct.
I love that you called us beautiful nerds! :)
But but but... how does it grow?
I just love this woman.
You mean woman?
@@miguelare3 yes, thank you.
A fruit that Silas doesn't count as a fruit
I feel better keeping heirloom varietiez, where if anything ever happens, buy fruit, it can be reproduced on its own.😊
I am so excited to see your new videos
So much information in such a short video.. Like always to the point ❤️
Of course sometimes it is technically GMO. Seedless watermelons are triploid, and the first variety was created by putting chemicals to mess up the meiosis process.
Exactly she completely missed this!
@@udderstuff5554 No, you are wrong. the normal English meaning of "genetically modified organism" is clear enough, but the people who campaign against GMOs are using this as an abbreviation for "organism whose genetics have been modified by recombinant DNA methods". Because the anti-GMO campaign has been so extensive, most people reading or hearing GMO take it to mean that limited category.
By analogy, Xerox used to be the name of a company, but now it is a verb meaning "to make a copy of something printed".
@@charlesmrader how exactly does that make me wrong? GMO encompasses many things. Using slang is bad reporting, this is bad reporting. If anything you only confirmed exactly what I said. She completely missed it.
And bananas*
The biggest seedless fruits of all
Meliponicultura en Costa Rica
And yet people still want them organic. People don’t know anything and they don’t know what they want. People believe in a bunch of b.s. and have a fetish in believing in lies, evil, and conspiracies. If someone says they are telling the truth, they wouldn’t believe him. If another person says they are lying, they say it’s a good thing he’s honest. People don’t know squat.
@@biggus6633 exactly, some company promotes something as new and better and there goes everyone buying that thing and spreading its use
Watermelons are about 100 times the size of a banana.....
Also often modern seedless banana are made from banana seeds treated to create plants that have double the normal number of chromosomes. Then crossed with untreated. It's this resulting 3n plant that results in sterile fruit. Hence no seeds. Then the bananas are just divided.
😂 it’s so smarty to sell seedless cultures every year. So farmers around world becomes a slave of USA agriculture system 😂😂😂
That's why I joined a heirloom club to save seeds! I have some verirties that I like and I grow them and pass on and on ...
Monsanto rules...(
How would they become “slaves” to the system? Plants grow truer from cuttings and produce fruit sooner than seed stock. Wouldn’t it be smarter to clone a mother repeatedly than to rely on seed? Also, most mass producers of commercial agricultural trees use specialized grafting techniques to make plants more disease resistant so they last longer, you can’t do that with seed stock.
I guess you never planted a tree so, let me explain. You cannot plant productive food plant from seed from the fruit you harvest, because it will lower the efficiency, the tree from that seed will only be 20-30% productive, use more fertilizer, and produce less food and most of the case do not have any fruit at all. All of that is because something about genetic optimization, so we farmer use cuttings or grafting to make new tree. Try to imagine how stupid you are to me... Think before make a statement, or else you will look stupid.
@@bachvandals3259 genetic optimization never works out good man mucks around with nature it doesnt work out well it allways has concequences reactions, all because of efficentcy and production rates ey? well doesnt that come down to profit, profit is to do with money? and money is causing your enslavement and if we did nt meddle maybe there wouldnt b half the diseases and problems there are? fertilizer is good its natural do you think pestisides are better?
What a great video keep up the good worl
Cucumbers have seeds we just never eat the matured cucumber
So I can eat seedless grapes? I wasn’t it them anymore, I thought they were GMO. Thank you so much! I’m subscribing!
She didn't say that the seedless fruits in grocery stores weren't GMO...I would continue to avoid until you know for sure....if you are buying within US/America, imo.
How helpful you are, really it's appreciatable
I'd like to know more about the grapes, like why does the plant decide to stop developing the seeds? I guess it isn't that easy to explain in a short video.
Hi beauty, i am from Indonesia. I can not speak English but thank you for giving us that subtitle in your UA-cam. So i can read and understand it.
Another informative video. Wouldn't the extensive use of clones result in a greater vulnerability to disease? I understand the banana growing industry is facing such a problem at the moment.
Yes. It's a issue across all monoculture plantings.
She says wourder-melon! So cute!
How do limes grow???. I always thought they weren't supposed to have seeds in them. That's one of the reasons I prefer them to lemons.
Just love how the way she speaks
Waiting for your show just seems alright no matter how long it takes to upload one.....your presentation is just mind boggling and I m lovin it......big fan
I prefer fruits with seeds and I eat some of them like watermelon seeds are delicious! If I lived in the US, maybe I wouldn't eat fruit as I don't like seedless fruit.
She bugging it gmo the good lord states behold lies the fruit with seed to bare the end
Let's support this channel pls don't skip ads.
Seedless fruits mean Monsanto and genetic modifications....
