Hey Breeders 
So I wanted to add my seeds to the collection, which is an old Tupperware tub I confiscated. But I couldn't get the lid to fit anymore
What to do now? Get a bigger box was my first thought, but the missus didn't like the fact that I'd be using even more space in the fridge for my "hobbies". So I put each pack of seeds into a small centrifuge vial, labeled it, fixed the label with some extra sticky tape. Meanwhile I updated my Excel file so I now have an accurate count of every seed in my collection.
The vials went into the tub without problems, but I felt they could be held more secure in the tub. So I took a couple pieces of Oases which I roughly cut to size and pressed each vial into the Oases.
Next todo is figure out a Naming scheme to write in the lids. Could be as easy as 1,2,3,... as this is my entire collection
Each vial is filled as followed...Seeds, a small piece/wad of toilet paper and on top of that a few grains of desiccant
Regards,
Bob

Nice, have several of those in different sizes to, but I thought it would be overkill since the majority of the cultivars contains three seeds or so.

Hey Growers,
We're back...
This season I've got several crosses from all different locations on the globe, which is so amazing!!! Once you make friends on AFN all sorts of goodies make it your way
I also dropped a penny into the original breeders wallet, which wasn't easy for a European btw and got my hands on some original warez...So without further ado...
Now the waiting game starts...I'll update you guys when I have something new to report
Regards,
Bob
