Storing Seeds?

Recommended Posts

What is the best way to store seeds and keep them viable?

I understand you can freeze most vegetable seeds but I'm lost when it comes to entho seeds like B. Caapi and P. Viridis.

If it's for personal storage, I would suggest you clean them thoroughly, dry them and dip them in anti-fungal powder, put them in little plastic zip-lock baggies and in a little envelope with

1/ their full botanic name, including commercial or common name

2/ date collected if you know it, or date received, perhaps the date of storage too if significantly different,

3/ location collected or source, name of the collector, any other info e.g. coastal, sun / shade, elevation

4/ how many plants provided the seeds if you know this (useful for genetic diversity)

and store them in the dark at about 4 degrees C. Buy a fridge if you can.
