Important Notes

1. USA or EU recommended, international shipments are subject to customs.
2. Only Pepper seeds you have grown and harvested are being swapped
3. Understand that you aren't guaranteed to get everything on your list, we do our best!
4. The exchange is only as good as the seeds people send…
5. 20 is a good number of seed packs to send. 100+ it is unlikely you will get 1:1 trades (but still great if you want to share the love!)
6. We decided this method instead of seed train because it is controlled from a central location. It can't be stolen / hijacked / lost.
7. Sending in seeds that are super common like jalapeno or tabasco or orange hab is kinda crappy because not many people want them
8. you can chat about the exchange on the discord https://discord.gg/QD44vtCusv
