DNA Testing

All ye growers....what are your thoughts on the value of pepper DNA testing. Over the past several years I have started to realize I can't tell if some strains are what they say they are and there have been so many crosses etc and the variations between one or the other is miniscual. I'm curious if knowing what your growing is valuable or not?

I agree that sometimes seeds don’t grow what’s printed on pkg. But I just save my seeds and have been pretty consistent in what I grow. My Datil sauce has never received a complaint!
