No seeds?

Some time ago a friend visited a grape vineyard near Stanthorpe and brought some lovely Waltham Cross table grapes, asking the couple why they grew no seedless grapes. They replied: “If you knew what growers sprayed on those grapes to make them seedless, you would never eat seedless grapes again.”
So he did a little searching and I would strongly advise you to consider doing the same. They are sprayed with Forchlorfenuron: Sitofex 10 EC Plant Growth Regulator. No wonder so much serious illness is saturating the community!
Look for the effects of this material on humans as applied on various crops in Australia, NZ, USA and China: forchlorfenuron on seedless grapes; seedless watermelons; kiwi fruit, apples etc… It’s not good.
