Background
Information:
Watermelon fruit blotch (WFB), Acidovorax
avenae subsp. citrulli, is a serious disease that
has become a significant risk in the area of watermelon
cultivation. The pathogen causing WFB can be introduced into a
field by infested seed, infected transplants, volunteer
watermelon, mechanical means, or natural spread from alternate
hosts.
More
Information:
Please note that
there are no known or inherent problems with our seed.
Testing for WFB is an expensive and
inaccurate process and not feasible for the
small lots we grow ourselves.
This waiver process has become industry
standard and is necessary for protecting our organization.
Thank you for your understanding.
