Why I do not buy professional seeds, I prefer simple color bags
The commentary was the advice: buy only professional seeds. I'll tell you why I do not. And very interested in your opinion.
My choice - conventional seeds in color bags. Here the most interesting.
So, there is a demand, there is supply. Want professional seeds inexpensively? You are welcome! 20 rubles. bag... conventional seeds. Professional are only in the page header online store.
So there must be real, and they need to buy! How? Branded prof. seeds only sell large packages, typically, from 500 units to 1 kg. If the fruit is not like, will be very unpleasant, the price of something significant.
The small bags agricultural companies under their brands packed the Dutch, French, Swiss, Japanese and Russian professional seeds. Expensive. About as it is written at the end.
So, actually, I coveted elite seeds without a word get.
Why, at least sometimes, not black and white paper bags
Part of conventional seeds, which I get, can be found in the humble paper bag. My vision is not in accordance with each piece of paper to peer. Savings in this case does not attract a cheap.
Color bag I know in appearance, immediately. Even without looking at the picture. Keep pachechku double layer images conveniently.
Disadvantages of conventional seed
- Conventional seed is not always a good germination, so in fact we do not have a planned economy. How many will rise, take away even that was not weak, and normal.
- Yield rarely corresponds to said bag, usually less.
- Can get infected seeds. This is a very bad moment. While I was lucky ...
- Peresortitsu upset, well, anything, just not the weeds ..
about quality
It may be worth to buy a big pack? Professional seeds specially selected the best of the best, theoretically.
In reality, they write that the germination is not always happy. The maximum risk in buying small packs of 165 p.
What I learned about seeds of vegetables:
- Often professional seeds of tomatoes, the ones plastic. I compared, grades no friends. For us, the agricultural firm tastiest packed. Experience at home. The purpose of professional vegetables - good portability, marketability. And the taste is not much like it. At home in the West seed producers can sell to farmers something good to eat, not tested, but our things go ...
- Even if the promised taste great, in my terms, when an unbalanced composition of the soil, is a different flavor. Professional seeds reveal their full potential in ideal growing conditions. I need to think about soil, look nekapriznye varieties, which I like to grow.
- Typically, prof. seeds treated thiuram (I have any, but I do not like it). Good stuff is, a month, no infection to the plant will not stick. From this meager amount of protection ...
- There prof. seeds in the hydrogel, it is convenient. However, the hydrogel is not always good for the plant (there is unflattering about it). And I do not think it is harmless (a moot point).
- Russian professional seeds in larger containers until they have acquired the reviews, for they can not say anything. The defending them a taste of the vegetables, I do not know. And the Chinese beyond me :).
In short, from the good deed goes unpunished. I am satisfied with colored bags with a small amount of seeds.
