well i heard a few bad things about svalbard seed bank. The original president/owner/head of sse gave himself too little power on the board of sse head members and gave too much power to them he was kicked out for not depositing the seed of sse members without there permition and for spending money on a tool shed for the sse farm. another thing about it is that they dont just preserve the seeds they geneticaly modify the seeds. Its something they hide under the table and theres reasons why the USDA wont share seeds with them. and yes they do have peppers there i saw a picture in the sse catalog of i think elefantrussel pepper going to the seed vault i havnt seen the pic in a year or two and i dont know where the catalog is
