saving seeds, didn't isolate: how bad did I screw up?

j.t.delaney · September 30, 2012

Hey there,
I'm in the process of fermenting seeds from my 2012 harvest for storage, but something has been gnawing at my conscience for the last month: I made no real effort to isolate my heirloom varieties. Really, you can't imagine the sense of guilt. How likely am I gonna get a hot mess of hybrid nonsense next Spring? Do I need to start with fresh seed stock for 2013? Please tell me I'm overreacting.

Remorsefully yours,
