Show Notes

Stop wasting your growing season on "Ghost Crops." Discover why your store-bought seeds are failing and how to identify the "Genetic Thief" before you waste another drop of water.

In this episode of the Farm Fresh series, we are dismantling the corporate "one-and-done" seed model. Most people think they are saving money by planting seeds from grocery store tomatoes or peppers, but they are actually inviting a "Genetic Thief" into their soil. These plants are biologically programmed to fail after one generation, leaving you with flavorless, sterile, or mutated harvests.
