Have you heard the one about the aviator who bought a 
parachute and was told, “If it does not open, bring it back 
and we will give you a new one?” 
Has it ever occurred to you that gardening is similar in 
some respects? 
When the seed is planted—the rip cord is pulled and there 
is no turning back—either the seed performs as it should, 
or else... No amount of effort on the part of the gardener 
will overcome the handicap of poor seed. 
You stake the use of your land, 
the depreciation of your implements, 
your season’s work and planning 
against what lies within the seed you plant.
