I am probably going to dig up another long ago discussed thread so sorry if
I do. I was wondering about the subject of trading seeds. I have no
problem trading seeds within the USA, but isnt anyone concerned about
trading seeds from overseas? I saw on here I think an Asian country
willing to send their seeds over here for anyone who wants to send a
SASE. An Indian friend of mine was going to send me some seeds straight
from India because he thought my habs were nice but not hot and wanted to
show some Americans what hot really was, I declined due to concerns about
introducing some new foreign disease into my garden. On the other hand,
the peppers that we now have in this country were introduced by immigrants
that carried their seeds wherever they went.
Am I being paranoid? Have the rest of you guys traded seeds to other
countries without any disease problems?
