.....something about 95% seed might give them wiggle room



WTF is the other 5% "allowed" to be?

...supposed to be?

I would say seed companies stretching the life of their seed Brown bagging it otherwise.

no offence intended , but i wouldn't grow that shit, after growing pioneer seed
thats their business and they do it well. P501L is stress free from the day you seed it

coating/treatment?

5 % could be the required weeds to keep a guy buying chemical...and its very well dispersed...

I think those are aster yellows, infected plants from leafhopper bugs blown up by the southern winds. We are due for another round of those, about 10 years ago we had them bad.

Aster yellows.

I expect those are male ( or female, I forget) that are supposed to have been removed in the seed production process.

Yes could be male sterile plants. Usually they grow quite large with little to no pods.

Non it is not.The sprinkle is perfect on 350 acres.Took a plant in to where I bought seed and he said some seeds on older varieties do that.

What you have is winter canola in the seed. This is more than I have seen but was quite common a few years ago. They multiply the seed in countries that have winter canola.
