Noone knows the secret ingredient of the Super-Soldier Serum but there are theories that it might be related to the Heart-Shaped Herb. What we do know is that Howard Stark inveted Nitramene, an unstable compound that releases (Vita) Radiation. We also know that he got his hands on Vibranium but not how. In this chapter the vegetation/grass that Dr. Erskine is experimenting with is not the Heart-Shaped Herb. It's just vegetation and soil that was irradiated by Vibranium. Also none of the above have anything to do with the X-gene. These are completely separate things.
Gotta fight Marvel with Marvel.
MC is just a normal human/Homo sapiens, and the technology for gene editing hasn't developed yet. But hypothetically, even if we did have the latest CRISPR-Cas9 technology, what's to say we could get superpowers using it?
Just a theory. Who knows why there was a sudden spike in mutants?
I'm pretty sure that the powers that be already know about mutants. It's just that there are fewer of them out and about right now. However, after the nuclear radiation spreads, giving a higher chance for those with the X-gene to have it activated, and along with the baby boom, there'll be many more mutants to be seen.
