Grow your own from hybrids. Less disease, better yield, taste great. The key is to pick them ripe, not pick them green then ship them.

If all you know is hybrid, you can’t begin to appreciate the quality and taste of the heirloom varieties.

Got to watch how you fertilize your munchkins. Most composted commercial manure is loaded with herbicides from their fields of origin. Roundup and its many clones are not fast biodegrade items.
