Re: Heirloom organic non-GMO seeds vs Hybrid
We just started ours last year, using a raised bed. Had onions, carrots, peppers, and pole beans.
This year we did squash. YUUUUUGE! We haven't bought veggies from the store except some carrots and some potatoes since I think May or something. How many ways can you cook squash and zucchini? lol
We also expanded, and planted tomatoes, peppers, and watermelon. Everything died. Well, except the peppers, they never even came up. We've got TONS of St Augustine that took over, though, lol. Plus dome stuff from our pasture I dont even know what it is.
Our two grapevines are in their second year, going out of control. lol
All our newly planted fruit trees died over winter, except the apple tree. North east Texas, whodathunkit? Even the orange tree failed to come back.
Might do a greenhouse next year.
We only plant non GMO heirloom seeds too.
