Lets think about seeds..

Most growes say, seeds must be storaged cold,
but did anybody ever storaged in the livingroom(not cold)?

In the winter it is never colder than 65-70
In the summer temperatures can be up to 90..

But if the seeds are in bags?
No airhumidity can get the seeds and only the
temperature is changing.

The seed feels Summer/Winter
that cant be so bad?

I found much birdseeds last year on our attic in a box.
In the winter i feeded it to the birds.
This spring i saw many of the birdseeds germinated between the gras.

Those Birdseeds must be more than 11 Years on the attic
and under the roof the temperatures can get very hot in the summer, but the seeds were already germinable!
