RE: Seed Inventory - January 26, 2025 @goldenoakfarm

It was my understanding that when seeds are refrigerated they do not germinate, at least that is what I was led to understand. But apparently you do it and there is no problem. Good planning for your garden 👍🏻

Sort:  

Actually seeds that are kept at a stable temp and humidity last a long time. While I said I discarded any from 2022, there is one I did not. The marigolds are from 2013 and still come up like they were last year's...

Some people even keep them in the freezer, but I don't have the room. Some seeds need to vernalize meaning they NEED cold for a certain period to germinate.

Wow, that's an interesting fact I didn't know 👍🏻
