Why not grow hybrids instead of heirlooms?
I notice on these forums that there is a lot of talk about heirlooms. I have tried growing both, but I find that most heirlooms succumb to diseases readily, have poor fruit set, and poor keeping qualities.
I would like to know what keeps people interested in heirlooms. |
