Seed Storage

Storing seed without losing seedling emergence potential needs carefully controlled humidity and temperature conditions. Seed will not keep for long periods of time and remain in good condition. If you have to store seed, place unopened packets in cold conditions, any opened packets should be stored in sealed containers in cold conditions.
