I’d like to try the Russian red. Nonhybrid seeds just seem to be the smart way to go. Even if I decide not to do the labor intensive gathering of the berries, I can collect some seeds plus watch the wheat wave in the wind :-)

No corn is nonhybrid? I have some golden bantam from Emergency Essentials that they claim is nonhybrid. I’ve only collected the seeds but haven’t grown any yet since I still have a lot left from the jumbo bags they sold. I have to admit it wasn’t a very tasty corn, not compared to the supersweet hybrids my husband got. We had to be careful with cross pollinating, but it Seem to work out OK with a different planting times.

Thanks for the links and the ideas. I have one Foxfire but, the first one. I suppose I need to find the one specifically on growing the plants I’m wondering about.

I bought set of foxfire at a used bookstore they are available

Am over on the fake weiner/Huma -HILLAry thread laughing at the comments. Almost as funny as the original post.
