| Hybrid process, and / or, sprouting a vine shoot rather than planting a seed. |

| I think it is much like when you breed a horse and a donkey to get a mule. Mules are almost always sterile. |

Who knows about Shameless and melons,that could lead to.............................. better just forget it. But the grapes come from twigs off the mother plant 99.9999999999999999999% of the time. But after thousands of years of taking shoots off other plants grapes have got little differences so there is Syrah clone x or y. Or Zinfandel clone 1234 or 4321 and so on an so forth. But there are some crazy people that grow grapes from seeds an maybe one in a million of those is something that becomes a new varity like the seedless Red Flame eating grape.

| Shameless. I don't have an answer to your question but I have been told the guys raising seedless oranges do not want bees near their orchards. I heard -- if a bee pollinates the flowers on the seedless orange trees, the oranges on that tree will all have seeds in them. |

I planted some seedless sweet corn this year, anybody want some? Lol And how about popping some seedless popcorn? I think they just call it shucks on the cob, rather than corn on the cob. |

| Or where do the weed seeds come from when you dig a hole and pile the dirt? Soil from 8 feet down is covered with weeds in a few days. |
