EC MN - Hour North of 'The Cities' | Every hybrid will have a variety # on the tag, which is a "fingerprint" for every hybrid on the market. It will show you that 1 brand of seed may have the same hybrid as another brand of seed, but they may have a different price. This would be equivalent to a GM truck that could be either a Chevrolet Silverado, or a GMC Sierra, both trucks are the same with the only differences being the brand (GMC or Chevy), model (Sierra or Silverado), and possibly price.
I can't remember who posted "The List" (an Excel file of hybrids that share the same variety #'s, thus the same hybrid), but you should be able to find it by searching "seed corn variety" on here.
I believe most brands under the Channel name (Crow's, Midwest Genetics, NC+) share the same hybrids, but there are others out there as well that may have some shared hybrids and some of their own.
