Storing Your Seeds

To help maintain the vitality and germination potential of your seeds, store them in a cool, dry place away from heat, moisture and direct sunlight.

A cupboard in a room with a stable temperature is ideal. For extra protection, keep your seeds in an airtight container or glass jar with a small amount of dry rice to help absorb excess moisture.
