Each year when the leftover seeds go on clearance sale I buy an assortment of whats available and store them in a cool, dry, dark place. I may not get the same germination rate as Seed Vaults. But from gardening experience older seed of most varieties will sprout.
No, I buy heirloom seeds yearly to supplement what seeds I save from previous years. I need to get better at saving seeds....
I've been planting heirloom seeds as much as possible the past few years and saving the seeds. Hardest part is finding heirlooms that work in the short growing season here in NW Montana.
have you been to heirloomseeds.com? they have the growing time listed for everyone. prices are good too.
I bought heirloom seeds from My Patriot Supply and they came in sealed gray bags in a large priority mail envelope. Should these be frozen or is the sealed UV resistant bag and a dry environment good enough?????
Thanks, I'll have to try them out!Quote:

I along with others in the family need to get one started
