Organic/non-hybrid seeds


Question
Are all "Organic" labeled seeds non-hybrid? I am looking for non-hybrid seeds locally and I only find "Organic" as a choice. They say nothing about whether they are non-hybrid.

Answer
Ben, organic seeds can be purchased as hybrids or non-hybrids. All organic means is that the parent plants were not treated with chemicals or synthetic fertilizers. They were also grown in organic soil.

If you're having trouble finding heirloom (non-hybrid) seeds, check the following websites. Their catalogs contain heirloom sections.

I hope this information helps. Good luck, and please write again if I can ever provide assistance.

Regards,

Mike
