thee, The 
A 
Storage of Vegetable Seeds 
EVERY GROWER AND DEALER in seeds must 
of necessity carry over some seeds from one 
season to the next. It is incorrect to think 
that seeds are not and should not be held 
over, but seeds are living things and must 
be treated accordingly. 
How Long Will Seeds 
Remain Good? 
This question cannot be answered briefly 
or simply. Some kinds do not naturally re- 
tain their vitality as long as other kinds, but 
most seeds are good for more than one year 
if stored under proper conditions. Actually, 
seeds are greatly affected by the weather con- 
ditions prevailing while they were being 
grown and harvested. That is, seeds grown 
under ideal conditions will ordinarily remain 
viable longer than the same kind grown 
under adverse conditions, even though the 
germination of both were high at the start.
