[QUOTE="nkotb, post: 972652, member: 19452"] It's fun to read your post Banjo. Seedless watermelon is GMO, but not the same way other crops are. Seedless watermelon is missing a chromosome and this has to be done by gene altering as these watermelons would never reproduce. I would say your poor watermelon was due more to growing conditions than the fact that these watermelons have been altered. To only grow grass for a very short time as you suggest would be extremely costly as it is very costly to establish grass. It is also interesting to read how "most" farmers are planting ryegrass between crops. While cover crops are starting to catch on, I sure wouldn't say "most" farmers are utilizing them. That is one point we can agree on though, is the need for rotation and the positive yield responses from cover crops. [/QUOTE]
