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

Easy to google up a lot of this stuff:

Thanks for the link but I would rather learn from folks that have had experience of their own. I am also not using "commercial" seeds.
