I can see the only seeds these gys know are these GMO’s that are killing us. She was forced to say that because someone needs promotion
Fake,was it plastic or steel mize or it wasnt labelled Mosanto Seed co etc
Are they fake coz it’s producing them?! I bought the one you’d call genuine seed only once, several years ago & planted a selected healthy seed from my harvest which has given me same results & have over 20 of 60/70kg bags treated & stored. So I don’t know what is meant by fake seed. All you need is plant with sufficient moist, do a garden your strength or pocket can manage, weed & fertilize @ the right time with sufficient amount of fertilizer.
Koyambatu ine aka kumva kuti pali chimanga cha fegi
What do you mean fake seed?
They r a number of procedures which are followed 2 produce seed, what matters most z de origin of dat seed and isolation distance during production, a seed z different from a grain, u can nt jst dye the grain to make it 2 be seed, n to produd your own seed u have to own a certificate from government thru research department
