Well. whats the best possible conditions to store over 50 seeds?

From what I've heard if you can, store them in your refrigerator. I have a good 30-40 selected bagseeds from various strains inside the black plastic protector that comes with cyclone blunts, and they made my seeds smell like fruit punch, and hopefully influence that upon my plants

Exactly how many is a nucnh?

I'd question "forever". In the fridge they should have a shelf life of about two years. The longer you wait to use your seeds, the lower your germ rate will be. Storage for longer periods is possible if the seeds are frozen, but they need to be completely dry to prevent damage to the internal structure of the seed, and gradually brought back to room temp.

The best storage method is to keep seeds in the original breeder's pack in the fridge, which is usually hermetically sealed. Don't tear open the breeder's pack until you're ready to use them. If your seeds are loose, say from bagseed, put them in a film canister with a few grains of uncooked rice to prevent accumulation of moisture.

Hey guys,

If you freeze your beans, would the thaw be considered "stressing" , and therefore increase the chances of hermies or is that only during the grow?

Also, is it better to freeze the little gals , or just keep em in a dark, air-tight environment at room temp or cooler?

Your if you please. Thanks.

Hey look another 6 year old thread, oh well, atleast Grasshopper didnt reserect it this time, LOL...

good info on storage though guys.

704iLn, my .02 is that they would stay more viable if kept frozen, but then I have some 2 yrs old that still crack when needed that have sat in a dark place at room temp... Personal prefernce if you ask me, what ever Keeps it Simple for ya

I know n_d_shadows. I just thought I'd make full use of the search before creatin' a new post and gettin the tomatoes thrown for not usin' the search!

Thanks. What I'm tryin to avoid is the wife findin my seeds in the freezer, but that's nothing a freezer in the garage wouldn't solve.

Through all seasons of the year, Ive kept allot of seeds in a test tube wrapped with electrical tape for darkness, sealed off with a cork, on a shelf (at room temp) for over three and half years, and they still seem to germinate fine, the odd one crushes to the squeeze but I think they were unhealthy to begin with, no big deal.
