I just recieved a package of Seeds in the Mail today
Thanks goes out to Roger & Lisa Wentzell whom sent me some seeds to try for 2004 growing season
Now my question is to keep these seeds good till May of 2004 ( when i plan on starting them)
Do I just keep them as they are packaged now and put them in a cool dark place till time of planting?
Or Store themin bottom drawer of Frigde
never kept seeds before thats why i'm asking
thanks

I put them all night under my pillow and dream about 1000+

I have a tilia vaccum sealer and vacuum seal the seeds and put them in my deep freeze.

One more opinion: I toss the seed envelope into a brown glass jar with a selica-gel pack. Then much to my wife's dismay, into the freezer it goes.

With all honesty, if you will be planting them this next season, cool, dry and dark will be just fine. If there is a chance you may not plant them for a couple seasons or more and preservation then becomes an issue, I'd then go with the refrig/freezer. BF
