Confused Which Seed to Plant Hybrid or Non Hybrid
Every gardener has a choice between Hybrid and Non-Hybrid(Open-Pollinated) Seeds and get confused to take decision especially for growing vegetables, considering most popular healthy term organic.
Does Non-Hybrid seeds are organic and Hybrid Seeds are non-organic? Certainly not.
Here the difference between Hybrid and Non-Hybrid
Hybrid: Hybrid seeds are produced by companies through careful pollination of two specific varieties by human intervention.
Ex: one tomato plant may be very drought tolerant and another tomato plant produces vigorously, the two plants might be cross pollinated to produce a drought tolerant tomato plant that produces a lot of fruits.
Non-Hybrid: Non-hybrid seeds come from plants that are naturally pollinated by insect, bird, wind, humans, or other natural mechanisms.
Positive of Hybrid Seeds: Hybrid seeds have disease resistance and perform better in terms of more fruits, flowers and vegetables produced, more plants surviving disease and pests.
Positive of Non-Hybrid Seeds:
· Because there are no restrictions on the flow of pollen between individuals, they come in a number of variety.
· We can also collect seeds from the plant and use them again next year to grow the same variety of plant.
· Low cost of seeds
Negative of Hybrid Seeds:
· Due to its specialized pollination process and the seeds you collect from them will not grow the same plant next year.
· Bit expensive compare Non-Hybrid seeds.
Negative of Non-Hybrid Seeds:
· Non-hybrid seeds are much more susceptible to disease and pests and not well rounded than hybrid.
Organic yield depends on how you cultivate it not just on Hybrid or Non-Hybrid Seeds.

Very helpful to start...
good support with good information. I appreciate your effort in popularizing the organic vegetables. I have two small balconies in the flat I reside. In one balcony I get sunlight in winter in the other summer. I would like to grow atleast some of the vegetable I take. I have some questions. Are you filling the seed baskets with the necessary soil ingredients? Or, are they available with you to purchase separately? For a small family of two people, if a vegetable, say Bendi of 250 gms is sufficient., then how many bags of vegetables are to be grown ? Is there someone who can inspect and give us guidance if necessary? Hope you donot mind clearing my doubts.

Dear Ramanuja Rao,
We sale Seeds and Grow bags only, soil will not come with it.
2 to 3 plats should be sufficient for a family for each verity vegetable and it depends on yield also.
