I plan on sending in even more seeds than last year. The lights are on just to take the pictures.

Last year I grew a bunch of blacks which I dearly loved but this year I started a lot of reds. I have at least three in the black/brown category that come to mind but of course I can't say anything further You have plenty of time to make your wish list up. I just picked my first ripe mid season tomato today and it doesn't look like any more will be ripe for a few weeks.

I'm planning on sending some hopefully interesting varieties too, - depending on the wish list.
Did add my requests on the google doc yesterday, it worked surprisingly well... ! Updated and saved the changes automatically. |

I am thrilled to see so many stepping up to Sponsor others this year. We already have Sponsor's and the Swap has not ever started yet. It makes my heart glad!

I would like to sponsor someone, if I knew what varieties are needed / wanted for that.

Do I need a sponsor if I send seeds in? I'm confused, someone explain it to me or give me a link to the rules.

Sponsors are people who offer to send seeds on behalf of someone who doesn't have the seeds needed to participate. If you have enough of your own seeds to send in, then you're all set! |

Non-sponsored participants send in seeds as per the instructions (and sometimes send in extra "bonus" seed as well that gets distributed among participants). |

Thanks, depending on how the rest of the season goes I may be able to sponsor someone too. I should be good from the looks of things.

Because, as others who've participated in the past know , there really aren't any rules. So, relax and enjoy the ride. (I hope you like roller coasters) |

There will be 6 (not 5) categories for peppers...
Mild Hot SUPERHOT Sweet Paprika Ornamental On the google doc wish list, participants can list 5 (or so) peppers. Peppers are much more difficult to fulfill on wish lists. So, there will be the MMMM Spoiler Alert listing, for those that want to choose from what should be coming in. Once someone is ready to list either their tomatoes or peppers (or veggie/fruit/flower seed too), I'll start that MMMM SA thread. |

Could there be an Italian sweet pepper category or non bell sweet pepper category?
