I read a recent study about the nutritional value of vegetables today versus those of fifty plus years ago. It showed that our fast hybrids don't have near the value of the older plants because they grow too quickly to absorb nutrients from the soil. Another reason to grow your own "slow" food, and perhaps grow more heirloom varieties rather than hybrids.
