Species!

  1. How do you keep your species plants from not crossing with other plants, so that the seeds you sell are true species?

  2. The seeds I sell , 99% I state they are OP what means Open Pollinated. When I offer true seeds it is stated self pollinated!!
    To get self we must to protect the flower from being pollinated by any strange pollen.
    This protection can be made by isolating the plant (when the pot is small) or by covering the flower stalks with a very fine tissue. Both the isolated ones and the protectec ones must be pollinated by hand or hand pollinated in order to produce self.
