Finally will have everything tomorrow AM to ship out Minus tomato seeds to Australia, They have refused them without a permit generated by their government to an Ausi grower. So sorry about that, but everything else is fine, I will get them all out tomorrow cause I'm gone for 10 days as of noon tomorrow

Thank you for you great work Eddy. This blockage of seeds between countries upsets me. After I ordered some carrot seeds from the UK that were seized...i was really upset.

So I ordered more, from multiple sources. The one place from Ireland that I got seeds from impressed me. They read the diary and associated posts, and airmailed seeds to me with Sunday delivery. If those would have been seized, i wonder how hard they would have hit back.

How easily are diseases transferred by seed seeds?

Yes, seeds can harbor disease. I hope no one is distributing seeds that has come from a diseased plant. If we stop exchanging seeds, there wont be any chance of spreading disease....but then, we wont have a hobby. I personally think that all these bans on shipment of seeds is not because of disease, but because there are a few large companies that want to control all of the worlds seed market. I am fearful of a world, where all the food supply is controlled by a few companies.

bnot, I am thinkin that this source of information...bp.com...has sort of circumcized the idea that the "few companies" can totally control all ideas & help w/issues that can control AG seeds. There seem to a few, that will go beyond the normal to get these incredible seeds distributed to where they can grow giants!Kudo's to you guy's who are standing UP!!! Peace, Wayne Obviously, other seeds than AG's also!!!

yes wizz, we have started up our gene pool with these seeds that have been sent to us from some of the fantastic people on b.p. that is the main reason for getting some great seeds; we are swapping seeds between each other, and hopefully getting bigger and better; i would just like to thank you guy's for all the help given to us in our attempt to improve this great hobby,i will be growing a couple of my own seeds from last year this coming season; regards-garry.
