I am learning, may be misunderstanding my source. Till now, I have not had a serious desire to save pure seeds, outside of the mmmm swap. This past summer I met a local grower that supplies one tomato and two pepper varieties for a large seed seller and learned the criteria that must be followed. No sewing tulle bags, just isolation distance, and quantity restrictions.
I searched google on the variety Aji Crystal, and the second seed seller hit, axxxx.seeds provided the information in question. I certainly have a great deal to learn about the nuances of peppers. I'm not a huge fan of hots, so my pepper knowledge is very basic. Outside of jalapenos, I only started two interesting baccatum peppers and op sweets with the intention of saving seeds to share here. I appreciate all the info shared. Never knew of sterile seeds. Lots to study ahead and choose for next year.
Hope to continue hearing more examples.
