I'm so happy to see all these UV- and BV-signatures for garden vegetables. :(

You posted enough so that I could start a new board for them.

Thank you, Zach!

 

I had to go look up how Tomatoes are pollinated.

Two ways outdoors: wind and "buzz pollination".

Two ways indoors in a green house setting: mechanical shaking and "buzz pollination".

Thank you for creating this, Andrea!

 

Not sure if alfalfa should be here or not. My wife grows it as a vegetable to eat its young leaves.
