Pepper seeds in particular. I harvest my own seeds from grocery store peppers
and the ones I grow. Are the seeds from 2011 still going to be viable in
January when I start my plants? I will have some from this years crop but I
think I may have waited too long and will not have all the varieties.
Thanks

Depends on how they are stored - and the only real way to know is to try
them. If you have excess seed from the 2011 batch you could run a
germination test - if not, either buy seeds or just give them a try when
the time comes.

Tomato seeds have very long viability - I've gotten 90% out of 10 year
old packets stored less than ideally. I dislike peppers of all sorts, so
I don't grow them, so I have no idea how long their seeds might last.
