I'm planning to get 3 Hermanns tortoises, and like every site I go on tells me to feed them organic plants, but I can't find many organic seeds. If I buy non GMO seeds, and grow them in organic coconut, will that be as good? Or is it very important I find organic? Thanks :)

1) do they...
Hi :) I'm new to tortoises, despite knowing my way around turtles. I've fallen in love with sulcatas, but I live in CANADA. I've found the roughly 95sqft I have to keep one in, and my mom is considering it. In the mean time, I had a few questions I couldn't find answers for.
