If hybrids produce seeds that aren’t ‘true-to-type’, then how do they keep making the same ones every year?

    What the heck is happening here? I thought everyone on Lemmy was in tech but you two are both plant breeders and you both came to Lemmy on the same day? That’s bananas.

    Thank you both so much for this information. It’s kind of confusing actually! I thought I was asking a question with a simple answer but that’s not the case at all.

      That’s what I’m sayin! Goofy ass world we live in. Either that or me and “v” are the same person, and we have split personality disorder and can’t remember the password to each others lemmy accounts…

      Shout out Oregon, btw.

        You could be the same person in alternate dimensions, who can only talk on one sublemmy. Try ham radios, too, just in case.
