I have extremely dark brown eyes, as an they are almost black. I ordered acuvue colours 2 in jade green, and I was wondering if the color even really shows up on dark eyes. If it's not noticeable and doesn't bring a significant change then I won't order them.
The Acuvue colors aren't that natural. I just ordered them and couldn't see clearly out of them to begin with. The color overlapse onto your eye so you can't see very well and the color didn't look real. It just looked fake. I would recommend the Freshlook brand, they seem to look natural and brighten up eyes.

El, amazingly, this is one of the first times I've ever found myself disagreeing with you. I'm of the mind that anything that gets people to start a home garden is fair game. Hybrids are more dependable producers than a lot of open-pollinated varieties, in general. If someone has never gardened before, I want them to be successful, so if it means they grow Big Boy tomatoes or Kentucky Wonder beans, that's better (to me) than them growing no tomatoes or beans at all. That hybrid is going to taste miles better than the grocery store version anyway. I hardly think anything's being lost there.
Most people just aren't where you are where variety in the garden is concerned. Even me! I mean, I tend to grow the same things (with a couple of new intros a year) season after season because I've found what works for me and my climate. Long Pie Pumpkins and Costata Romanesca and Jade green beans each year may not make for the most exciting garden around, but I like knowing I can count on them.
So I'd say, don't be worried about the countless new gardeners out there. Let them get a taste for what a patch of ground can offer, and be comforted in the knowledge that, after a couple of years, they'll start itching for different and better options. Too much choice can scare even the most enthusiastic newbie away. People will always find their way to more info.
One more thing…. you've mentioned several times that you like Johnny's. They often turn me off because it seems every other seed is marketed toward market growers. They really push “cut and come again” culture, looks, and disease resistance, not often talking about how the dang veg tastes. And that's just one more reason why I always come back to Fedco…. I want to know about taste and storage, first and foremost.
