    freezing seeds

    :oops: kalalaukid

    I doubt it they will pop on you.......Not like popcorn in the heat , ha ha .

    I say they will thaw quick enough with the soil alone.

    Hi. Is the viability of the seeds get longer if they are stored in the refrigerator?

    What I mean is:
    Will the seeds survive longer if stored in the refrigerator rather than a cabinet?

    That I don't know, but I do know that bulbs last longer in the fridge. They are fresh, after all.
