Seed Storage
Seed storage is the practice of keeping seeds in a controlled environment to maintain their viability for future planting. Proper storage conditions, such as cool temperatures and low humidity, help prevent seed deterioration and extend their lifespan. Seeds can be stored in airtight containers, such as glass jars or vacuum-sealed bags, to protect them from moisture and pests.
Different types of seeds have varying storage requirements. For example, vegetable seeds may last for several years if stored correctly, while flower seeds can often remain viable for even longer. Regularly checking stored seeds for signs of damage or decay is essential to ensure successful germination when planting time arrives.
