Comments for Eunuch Watermelons Invade Markets at http://envirovore.com , comment 1 to 4 out of 4 comments http://envirovore.com Mon, 15 Mar 2010 01:02:55 +0100 FeedCreator 1.7.2 http://envirovore.com/content/view/194/9/#comment-1372 I hadn\'t even thought through the fact that these melons might be unhealthy, but have been really annoyed that they have totally replaced the watermelons that I enjoyed as a kid. They aren\'t really \"seedless\" -- just have those anemic half-formed seeds in them that are just a nuisance. I live too far North to grow these, so the seeds wouldn\'t be of any real use to me, but I can tell you that if I found a \"real\" watermelon in the market, I\'d be inclined to buy it even if it cost twice what those \"seedless\" ones did. - Elaine Sat, 27 Sep 2008 21:09:32 +0100 http://envirovore.com/content/view/194/9/#comment-935 ok, the comment on colchicine being safe by commiung from crocus flowers is just plain retarded... I mean practically all of the ten strongest poisons are natural products... on the other hand, it is used only to develop tetraploids, and nothing of it remains later... not even the most homeopathic of doses... and, this thing with tetraploid crossed to diploid gives triploid is how they make seedless bananas (duh, ever wondered why bananas don\'t have seeds :) cheers! - Ivan H.
