    Does anyone have a seed bank? I have wanted to start one for a long time. With so many of the cotton crops failing in India, and seed consolidation companies now pushing their latest experiment on farmers, and heirloom varieties no longer being available in commercial quantities, I think I just got pushed over my emotional edge. Any advice, do's-don't's, and other inputs would be useful. Remember, I live in a very wet environment. Moisture and molds are always problems.

    BTW, I just ordered some heirloom cotton seeds.8)

    I'd like to hear others experiments as well. My seed saving is nowhere near being called a seed bank. More like the "money stuffed in the mattress" approach.
