I just ordered for next winter's grow.

Will room temp be okay or should I I seal them in a jar with a silica packet in the refrigerator?

I use old allergy pill jars. Keep that little humidity capsule. Store in a drawer in a metal box (labeled ofc) with the beans i ordered previously. If its cool and dry and the container seals.. my experience says this simple method is effective.

I have a bunch of ziplocks labeled (fem photo, reg photo, landrace, autos, etc.) Those go into a gallon freezer bag that I keep in the fridge.

But now that I'm chucking pollen on everything, I'm going to need a bigger bag and fridge!

All seeds go into vials which are then plugged with a piece of cotton and topped off with some desiccant.
Then they go into a vialbox which is sealed up with some tape around the edges and put on the top shelf of my fridge.

One of the drawers in our fridge is nothing but my seeds.

Last night after reading this thread I broke down and repackaged all my store-bought gear. Now it takes up half the space so I guess I need more seeds! I felt like King Midas with his pile of gold.

I used to keep them in film canisters inside a small cooler in the basement but after some poor germ rates I decided to move them. I bought a "diamond painting kit" off Amazon and keep the case in the fridge now. Lots of nice little vials and foam cutout to hold them. Several sizes.
