One of the problems I have with long lists is that if one item is 
wrong, I have to doubt all of the others. Asgrow is owned by 
Seminis. It is using Monsanto genes, but it is not owned by 
Monsanto.

When you haven't verified your statements you do a disservice to 
all and make the internet a rumor mill instead of an educational tool.
