- About this item
- All of the seeds sold in our shop come from the best producers in the European Union. Thanks to many years of cooperation, we have developed the most appropriate conditions for storing and distributing fresh and precisely tested batches of seeds, always! Eliminating middlemen in the whole process not only makes it possible for us to avoid the problem of sending out old seeds, which have been lying on the shelves in warehouses for many months, but also guarantees the highest quality for products.
- All of our seeds pass through a four-stage quality control process. STAGE ONE consists of carefully selecting producers as well as controlling their crops, including foreign producers. Plants are not only checked when they start to grow, but also during blooming and bearing. It is important at this stage to ensure spatial isolation, thanks to which we can be certain of obtaining the desired morphological characteristics of each particular species, such as colour, height and shape.
- STAGE TWO consists of performing high precision tests in laboratory conditions. Thanks to the use of the highest quality equipment, and also thanks to highly qualified staff, our suppliers perform more than 30,000 quality tests annually. STAGE THREE consists of sowing seeds in control plots. We obtain precise information concerning their germination, which must be maintained at an appropriately high level. Simultaneously, the varietal identity of each species is checked at this stage.
- STAGE FOUR is performed in our warehouses and consists of rejecting seeds which have been lying for too long on our shelves and replacing them with new batches. Each packet is stamped with an appropriate batch number and also with the sow-by-date. All four stages make it possible for us to state with confidence that the seeds we are selling comply with the highest standards and have passed through all possible control stages without problems.
- Prizes and awards! The seeds we sell are widely recognised and have won many awards. They have won numerous gold medals and also prizes for their high quality and for the application of innovation. Some of these awards are: TOP INNOVATION (June 2015), GOLD MEDAL AT THE INTERNATIONAL FAIR (2015), CONSUMER QUALITY LEADER (2014), FARMER OF THE YEAR (2014). Non-GMO Seeds!
