Storing Seeds
Store seeds in a cool, dark, dry place. Make sure to label containers! Some seeds will remain viable for five years or longer when stored properly. When 50 percent f the stored seeds do not germinate, the average storage life is over. But seeds a year old or older often take longer to sprout and have a ower rate of germination. Seeds store for a long time when humidity is less than 5 percent and temperature is 35-41F.
