Viability depends on the type of seed. Corn for 2 years only. Most others at least three, and some are viable much longer. I have a link somewhere that tells. I’ll search for it later.

Has anybody saved corn seed in the deep freeze? I’ve heard it’s a really great idea and it’ll keep 20 years, if stored judiciously in the freezer. I’ve also heard it’s the worst thing in the world and will ruin your seeds.

Any ideas?

I keep tomato/pepper/eggplant/bean seeds in the freezer already. Just wondering if corn is ‘speshul’ in some way and won’t keep like that too.
