Abstract

As herb growers and marketers, all of us enjoy working with plants and 'their useful products. Many of us are involved wit:h growing herbs from seed or cuttings. There probably aren't quite so many of us who produce our own seed and of those who do produce seed there are even fewer who do so using some method of controlled pollination. To be a plant breeder, first you need to learn how to produce quality seed under controlled pollination conditions for the species you want to improve.
