If, however, we leave the seeds for a long period of time in any corner of the house it is possible that over time their viability to germinate will decrease, and when we plant them they may take a long time to germinate or indeed not germinate at all. In the original packaging, these Eppendorf tubes hold the seeds and usually also contain a few small silica gel balls, included to maintain very low humidity (10 to 20%) and help to ensure that the seed does not lose any germination viability. If we want to save the leftover seeds from a pack for later use, we recommend storing them in the original Eppendorf tube or container used by the bank. The best place for its conservation is usually the small shelf where the eggs or butter are kept, although really any part of the fridge is ideal for storage. If we want to keep a seed package that's still sealed, simply put the whole unopened pack into the fridge. What to do with leftover seeds or unopened seed packsĬannabis seeds need very low relative humidity and relatively low temperature for their proper storage, so the best plan is to keep them in a "no frost" refrigerator, in which both the humidity and temperature are maintained at very low levels for better conservation of food. Sometimes, certain varieties are in high demand and there is limited stock, so the more astute growers will make sure they grab a few packs to keep in the vault until they find the time to germinate the cannabis seeds.Ĭannabis seeds must be stored in the correct conditions The same goes for unopened whole packs of seeds that have been purchased to store for later use. The seeds of the cannabis plant, like many other types of seeds, must always be kept in the correct conditions, especially if you want to save the leftover seeds for later use and ensure that they germinate well in the future. Seeds dying before germinationĬannabis seeds can die even before we start to grow them, in which case, when the grower comes to germinate them, they won't open up and sprout at all. In this article, we'll focus on the main reasons why seeds may not germinate properly, or why seedlings may end up dead in the first weeks of life. Death of the plants during the growth periodĮvery grower, almost without exception, will have occasionally suffered the death of a plant during cultivation, just when it seemed that everything was going along nicely.Death by drowning the seed during germination.Death during the germination of cannabis seeds.What to do with leftover seeds or unopened seed packs.
