Tasty Pepper Seed Disclaimer:
All of our seeds are open-pollinated, unless otherwise noted. This means they are grown in natural outdoor environments where pollination may occur through wind, bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. While this allows for strong, resilient plants, it also means there is a chance of accidental cross-pollination.
We do not guarantee 100% genetic purity for open-pollinated varieties that are not fully isolated. However, we follow strict standards to help maintain our seed integrity:
If you are saving seeds or require genetically stable plants for breeding, please take these factors into account.
Note for Buyers:
From a customer’s perspective, expecting a specific variety and getting unexpected traits can be disappointing, especially if you're unaware of how seed isolation works. Sometimes seed companies don’t communicate these differences, which often leads to bad experiences & reviews from frustrated buyers. That’s why we strive to be upfront about our growing methods and help educate our customers on making informed choices. Check out our resources & extras below to learn more.
