Storing Seeds

[Zell]

It said in another thread to keep ur seeds in a cool dry and dark place. I found the place its in my freezer where the ice box is. But is it okay to store them there? Like will they freeze be unusable?

Thanks guys..

yes you can freeze them, many people do. they will probably last longer in freezer. but, they last for years in fridge, or even in the closet, so either way its not a big deal IMO.

Make sure you use a dessicant within the container of seeds to ensure no excess moisture is allowed to form.

 

Seeds are biological time capsules, freezing just makes em a little more long lived... Still, a freezer should keep em stable and good for years... I've heard of seeds just left in baggies for 8 years being planted out and growing into moster plants, only they had an atrocious germination rate.... The ones that made it tho... damn, you know those genes code for long life in seed now don't ya?
