- Опубліковано 31 тра 2024
- For the first time, genetically modified seeds have been made available to the common gardener for home use in the form of a purple tomato. But the real question to ask is, what are GMO seeds, and is this something to be excited about, or should we be concerned? Let's dive in together.

I'm in the "5%" who are not interested in growing GMO seeds.😊
I just find it hard to believe that 95% of backyard gardeners want to grow anything GMO. We like to save seeds. I grow a garden and raise chickens for eggs and meat because I want to feed my family healthy foods.
@@nancygrogan6082 I agree, I seriously doubt that many people want to contaminate their homestead with GMO produce. We also keep chickens and try to be self-sufficient. 👍
I want to start gardening to get away from gmos, I'm looking through local farmers to purchase meat from to get away from birth control in chicken meat and c.o.v.i.d vaccines in the pork and possibly now beef...
In reality it is probably more like 95%
not gonna be me!
No No
Just another way to destroy the home gardener seed supply
Maybe their “poll” was done on the company employees producing these seeds. I’m a definite “NO!”
yeah....
Probably done on the general population, who would like to grow in their imaginations, but don’t really grow anything.
Very informative, and not at all where I thought this was going when I first started watching it. I'm with you on not using GMO. We stay with heritage breeds and just started seed saving, this will be our 3rd year of planting seeds we harvested from last years crop. We've got a small 11 acre farm with 38 raised beds (4x8, 4x10, 4x12) and 50 laying hens. We also raise and process about 90 chickens a year. These feed my son and daughter-in-law and their 5 kids along with my wife and I. We can and process everything ourselves, and I'll be getting into freeze drying in another year. I told my wife about your work and she bought your book 😬
now more than ever we must preserve the God's given true seeds for future generations.
My efforts to learn how to grow food and to buy wisely what I can’t grow, is specifically to avoid things like gmo’s, heavily sprayed crops and who knows whatever else has been put in the meat and crops for way too long. Good info, thank you Melissa.
Thank you! This is why we need to teach as many as willing to learn how to grow and SAVE OUR OWN seeds! Thankful for you and others educating on this important topic!
Love your Pod Casts. You are Beautiful and very knowledgeable.
We use Heritage Seeds as well and SAVE them.
Hot topic! Many people have been talking about this subject. Recently, I listened to the MIGardener video explaining the differences between heirloom, open-pollinated, and hybrid. It was pretty interesting. But most of the gardening channels have been saying that backyard gardeners cannot get GMO seeds. This must have come up very recently. I don’t grow a garden so I can have everything exactly like the grocery store sells. I want good, pure, untainted produce. The Bible verse you chose was SPOT ON! Boy, do we have to be careful!
These hit the market on Feb 3, 2024, so, yes, very recently launched. I just found out about them, a few days after I got my first seed order, by watching a Roots and Refuge video where Jess was talking about it.
Melissa, I trust what you say cuz I Know you do your homework/research ‼️😉. Thank you for teaching us about gardening in all aspects.🥰👵🏻👩🌾❣️
You will likely get a ton of fake robot comments about being so excited to buy GMO seeds for their gardens. The algorithm is looking for this topic.
I do not want GMO seeds being sneaked into my seed supply.
How do we know it hasn't already been and They are lying to us? They lie about everything else...
I learned so much information from you about seeds, and from that I now can make an educated decision as to what to look for, and more
I absolutely love how you used Scripture. That makes me admire you all the more.
Thank you
Such good info. The spending several years of seed saving and regrowing over many seasons for the desired fruit is called Landrace gardening.😊 I've been doing it for several years before I learned there is a name and a group of farmers and gardeners that participate in this way of gardening. New t-shirt : say NO to GMO 😅 thx
Thank you!
I’ve been anti-GMO for years. I will not be growing or purchasing these purple tomatoes.
G-d is smarter than we are. I agree with Him too.
Lovely episode today 😊
Amen! I agree.
The discussion between what seeds are what is still ongoing.
Open Pollinated means it was pollinated by natural means. i.e. wind for corn, large flying insects for squash. In other words, planted in a open garden and let nature do it's thing.
To be an open pollinated variety, it has to be genetically stabilized and isolated from other varieties.
Heirloom is a proven genetically stable variety over a long time. Heirlooms can be grown in a greenhouse and hand pollinated. That would not be open pollinated but still heirloom.
Even Heirlooms have genetic variability. Open pollinated heirloom seeds will have more genetic variability than hand pollinated heirloom seeds. This results in heirlooms that will produce in a wider variety of garden conditions.
Open pollinated indicates genetically stable but not, necessarily, heirloom.
Labeling laws need to demand companies be more clear with exact details.
Great video. Say no to gmo
Canada just opened to crisper seeds ‘gene edited’ “not gmo” but gmo
💚💚💚
I am also in the 5% that is not interested in buying GMO seeds!!!
Monsanto, also planted their GMO corn on purpose next to farms that didn't have their GMO corn. Just so they could sue them! This is a huge purple flag that needs to be addressed and scrutinized!!
I was going to seed save anyway this year but now even more than ever!!
probably they gather all the people from their lab and do the statistic questions...
Very good info. I was thinking of these verses in Genesis the whole way thru your video. I would rather follow God than man!... Even in my herbs and veggies. 😊
No GMO interest here! Will the seed packs tell us they're GMO?
Right now there's only one variety, I'm not aware of any current label laws one way or the other in regards to garden seed.
@A-G5518 My package says "bioengineered" on it.
I doubt the statistic they give. They don't appear to be very trustworthy given their profit motives and overall behaviors.
The only seeds i want are ones that only God Almighty owns the patent to.
Same thing is being done today to God's creation, as in the "days of Noah"
It is the only tomato with a lot of anthocyanins in the flesh, Black beauty has a small amount in the flesh.
definitely not on my list of things to buy.
I'm a NO for GMO.
And a curious thought: if the powers that shouldn’t be can modify plants and animals, it’s very likely that humans are being modified as well.
Scripture says when Christ returns, it’ll be “as the days of Noah”, which consisted of abominable modifications against God’s design. I think we are here. Buckle up because God’s wrath is about to be poured out on the ungodly.
We've been here before if you look through history. History repeats but this might indeed be the last time.
I believe that’s true! Blessings to you, friend.
Wow. Just wow. I take it that you don't know that the Bible clearly states that the Father condemns mixing any of creation...animal or plant. Oh my. Well, I continued listening to get the correct definition of heirloom. I hope these are natural GOD created seeds.
Um, I don't think you understood what I said based on this comment.
Yes you did misunderstand what was said. Just avoid genetically modified seeds, fruits, vegetables, vaccines, and people like Joe Biden. 😅😂😅😂
Say NO to GMO!
I think anytime man thinks he can modify what GOD made, is very dangerous and better avoided. Except hybrids😊😊😊
