Frequently Asked Questions
1. How much area will a 10 g pack cover?The 10 g figure is pack weight, not an area or seed-count claim. Check the supplied packet’s seed rate and germination information before deciding how many packs you need.
2. Can I sow it in any region?The year-round description is not a recommendation for every region or month. Choose a local sowing window that suits soil, climate and water availability.
3. Are fruit size and yield guaranteed?No. AgroStar’s fruit measurements and yield potential are reference traits. Results vary with growing conditions and crop care.
4. Does downy mildew tolerance mean complete protection?No. Tolerance does not mean immunity or guaranteed protection. Continue monitoring the crop and use local agronomic advice.
Safety & Disclaimer
Do not assume the seed is untreated. Do not add a seed treatment without the supplied packet directions and appropriate professional advice.
General seed-handling guidance:
Keep seed in its labelled packet in a cool, dry place, protected from moisture, pests and rodents. Store separately from fertilisers and crop-protection chemicals, and follow the packet’s storage directions.
These seeds are for sowing, not food or feed. Keep them away from children, food and feed, and wash hands after handling.
If the packet identifies treated seed, follow all treatment-specific handling warnings and protective-equipment directions. Treated seed must never be used for human food, animal feed or oil extraction.
Read and follow the supplied packet and leaflet. Check the variety name, pack quantity, lot details, stated germination and purity, validity, and any treatment warnings before sowing.
