Do they clean the seeds in some way? I would LIKE them irradiated. No radiation is left and you are sure there are no germs or bacteria.

The Frontier fennel seeds I purchased via Amazon are non-irradiated. I was very happy with them, but use them mainly for baking breads. Therefore, the product is heated sufficiently to kill microorganisms. If you are searching for seeds suitable for sprouting/eating raw, I would not recommend these for such purposes. The bag provides phone#: 800-669-3275 and www.frontiercoop.com so that you might query them regarding possibility that they can supply a product for your purposes.

The seeds are very clean but I do not know if they are irradiated. I usually put the seeds in a mug and pour boiling water over them to make fennel tea, so the heat would kill any bacteria. I put the fennel in soups and on pizza as well.

Good heavens no! They are organic sprouting seeds. Why would one want to contaminate them with a disinfecting solution?

I did not soak mine and they grow beautifully. soaking would give them a boost.

I first would like to state that Organic Traditions is a reputable company, that being said I usually just use these straight out of the bag, I store mine in the refrigerator to protect the delicate oil in them. I do not was my seeds and I have not sprouted these as of yet.

I have treated mine all the same and they are doing wonderfully. You will need to water or spritz them with DISTILLED water- that does make the difference. Otherwise they are pretty hardy.

I've never disinfected these seeds, but it might be good idea, since the germination is irregular. I just encountered that problem with another jar today, different mixture.

There are some printed instructions on harvesting the seeds, but nothing as far as care. There are so many schools of thought on that, I don't think I'd expect any more.

I think they must puree the chia seeds because I've never noticed them. Totally smooth.

No there is not. Its is 100% uncooked/unroasted, unsalted seeds. They are shelled. I have recently even sprouted a small amount. They are good seeds.

Perhaps there are vendors whose organic popcorn kernels have bugs. I have yet to detect this here. When I received the order I vacuumed packed my order in separate containers. Bugs have been around since agriculture and farming. In point of fact, we are all exposed to germs and this provides immunity. Best wishes.

It's been a long time since we bought the seed. Can't recall if it was treated or not. It did germinate and grow well. You should contact the seed company to be sure. Susan

I have no idea. I would guess that ORGANIC means NOT Irradiated. Why they would irradiate this?

Happy Holidays! To be honest with you, I need to do more research about the black sesame seeds before I give you my answers. So far I have heard lots of voices. One of the voices said the black color of genuine sesame seeds should not come off while soaking in water. But another voice said it is normal for the color to come off. Now I don't feel that I have the final answer. Stay well!

i let them soak in lukewarm water for an about an hour before placing them in the soil ...this helps the tough seed to get hydrated...and germinate more quicklygerminate more quickly

I was concerned about this too and did a bit if research. What I read about these seeds had led me to believe that they aren't GMO. Hope this helps.
