germination needs warmth and moisture, which is the reason why some farmer experience irregular germination as a result of the dry/cold weather

I'm not doing that, why warning ... More over I'm not a novice in agriculture atleast I know better in my own little way.... Bro

Commercial farming is what I've being doing since I finished Uni. Over 10 years ago...

I get your warning, but what you thought isn't what I meant..... You experimented with the F2 , nothing bad if I should try either .....

The seeds aren't that expensive why would I risk time, energy and money to replant an F2 seed?

Well, thanks for the warning... appreciated bro

could you please explain why f2 seeds shouldn't be planted? I wanted to replace some of my seeds with f2. About 5% didn't come out, Is it's advisable to do the replacement?
