Hybrid seeds are NON-GMO! The F1 hybrid seed is produced by the union between two distinct seeds. Generally this result is obtained artificially but the grafts, in reality, are also common in nature. The crossing is carried out between species that have excellent characteristics of productivity, resistance to pathogens, or aesthetic results. After years of separate cultivation of the two pure plants, pollination is done manually by crossing the two groups. in this way the hybrid seed will be obtained. The hybrid seed is not able to produce other hybrid seeds but a characteristic to consider is the concentrated & simultaneous maturation of the plant. This convergence of the same characteristic coming from both segregations produces a generation of seeds (precisely called F1) which will produce plant individuals in which the hypothesized character will be very evident. This ameliorative effect will not manifest itself in subsequent generations; in a few generations there will be a progressive attenuation of the character.
