What are F1 Hybridsseed can be either Open Pollinated or a F1 Hybrid. Open pollinated seed is naturally pollinated & genetically diverse.

On these rare occasions, an organic F1 hybrid is preferred but, if unavailable, a non-organic F1 hybrid can be used. If youre growing to save seed, Garden Organic recommends choosing an Open Pollinated variety.
