Professor N. B. Tzitzin, Academy of Science, may be a blessing to mankind for his awareness of, this hearty plant. First he noticed how the plant could survive in any soil or weather conditions; and how it had a fantastic power to multiply. One plant produced over 10,000 seeds by crawling rhizomes. Lengths up to 1,500 ft. can be produced in an area of 9 sq. ft. This will yield over 20,000 buds ready to start at the first opportunity, meaning one plant can produce over 30,000 plants in one season, either by rhizomes in immediate area or by seeds in distant soil.
If one lonely plant settles in a cultivated field it overcomes the field in a very short time and the more you cut it the more it grows. Observing this strong power of survival, Professor Tzitzin, being a young and ambitious scientist, decided to use this characteristic for the betterment of mankind and brilliantly gave new life to wheat by this hybrid omnipotent quality. In countries where agricultural production is critical this improvement deserves attention and consideration. This much-improved academic find adapts to any soil, good or bad; resists sickness and fungus parasites; resists frost, drought and wet periods.
