Are you swamped by beautiful, glossy seed catalogues? Do you still have some of the seed packs you ordered last year, but are considering ordering more? Do terms like “hybrid”, “F1”, and “heirloom” confuse you? Is your home life suffering as you spend long sleepless nights trying to decide which of the hundreds of different tomatoes or Zinnias to grow this year? This lecture will help you answer these questions and more!
