Law said his motivation to lead a healthy lifestyle came in part from the passing of his father, who died from a "massive heart attack" when he was just 51.

They cross-pollinate easily and the resulting seeds can produce some very awful tasting and sometimes semi-poisonous offspring. That said, if there is only one cucumber (or squash) within bee flight distance, your odds of getting good quality seed is decent.
