A safer way of preventing moisture from ruining your seeds is to pop a dozen grains of dry rice into your jar before sealing it up. It will absorb any moisture. I also keep a few grains of rice in my salt shaker for the same purpose to prevent my salt getting moist and getting clumpy and it works great. I enjoy your videos very much! Thanks!

Hi, Very nice videos you got, Does light have any effect on the seeds once they are in the jar? Do we have to store them in the dark or just leave them in our room? Thanks!

Hi,
Thank you for sharing the knowledge.
Couple of questions if I may: I thought "pods" should dry on the plant to ensure better efficiency of the seed - to mature so to speak. I was told that for Cucumbers, is it? and what about green peas green & peas in specific?
Second, can you keep a dry Mango seed for next season?
Thanks in advance for replying.

One question (as I'm watching your video) when you place your tomato seeds on the paper towel do you ferment them first?
I have seeds I saved from my mother in law's yeild last year and plan on planting them but it would be really nice if I could avoid the fermentation process this year.

pretty sure most root veggies are biannual or whatever. meaning it takes 2 years to seed

you can buy seed raising mix, or put them in the garden, maybe with a transparent covering to keep the heat in
