Good Mexican is good enough. Raised beds like you mention are an excellent way to grow outdoors regardless of soil quality underlying. Get your hands on any damned seeds, who cares if they are the same strain? Grow what may. Read Ruth Stout.
When I hear people bitch about Mexicans I always ask would they like to be out in the hot sun picking tomatoes or shoveling chicken shit or cutting peoples grass and other nasty, HARD labor work. We lived near the entrance of Yosemite National Park in California and the San Joaquin valley was only about 30 miles away. We went down this one road about 10 miles and all you could see from horizon to horizon on both sides of the road were orange trees, totally loaded with huge oranges. Guess who swarmed in to pick all those? If you want a pony, you're gonna have to shovel some sheet; it goes with the program.
Dam straight it does....and you got my point exactly.....that is exactly correct and true...FACT......interesting how people love to bitch about how they are taking american jobs....and ok...there is some truth to that....but lets say, just for the sake of agreeing with those who say it....ok we wont let them wk here no more....now all those jobs are open to yall!!!.....how many american citizens do you suppose would be lined up for those jobs.....as a matter a fact...if that truly was the case....why dont we see american citizens out there picking those oranges....surely farmer joe would be happy to give a fellow citizen that job...i'm sure of it.....thats not to say that some or many of these workers arn't already american citizens.....you get the message....
