My feelings are that is you have unsown GRIN stock it shouldn't sit in a drawer. Lots of talk online about 'getting out' seeds (queue Mission Impossible background music) but not much about sharing the gotten goods with everyone else. In other words, if anyone is sitting on GRIN stock with no intention of sowing it in the next few years, it would be lovely if you shared those seeds with people who will grow them out, refresh the stock and breed with it and/or share it with the rest of us. USE the seeds.

And I do agree with the above 100%.

Every single varietyCraig and I got out we SSE listed which was a good way of getting seeds out there since the owners of many seed sites are or were also members.

And I offered all that I got out in seed offers made before Tville opened, such as the original Garden Web.

And there are still many listings in the SSE Yearbook where they note their seed source and it was from another member who did get it out of PC GRIN and the date is given.
