Haven’t started maters yet, but in the next couple of weeks... Grin
Don’t freeze seed? That’s what we reccommend because of the high humidity here. Putting rice in the jar would probably backfire for us! The worst thing for us is bugs. I think some of the seeds come pre-bugged, primed to hatch. Amazes me how weed seed can remain viable for centuries just lurking and waiting for the right moment to attack, and spinach seeds won’t keep from spring til fall—here.
Yes. Your mileage may vary on seed storage if you live in a freakin’ SWAMP, LOL!
