Store Seeds Correctly or they will rot!

I kid you not, this is important...
Although we at survivalist seeds
were the first to offer to the
public - bulk heirloom seeds, it did
not take long before copycats like
survivalistseedbank and all the
others jumped in to copy everything
we did, until they couldn't match
our variety and quality. However,
since all were either marketing
companies or dehydrated food
companies with no gardening
experience, they make the mistake of
putting their living seeds in
sterile death chambers like foil
bags and tin coffee cans rather than
the century old acid free paper
envelope.
Why would this matter? Well, since
they promote the idea of long term
storage of the seeds, they should
provide you with seeds that will
germinate a decade from now.
Unfortunately, many people are going
to be very disappointed when they
decide to plant their heirloom seeds
from these huckster companies and
find that the seeds are dead, rotted
to the core because they were
trapped inside a container that will
not allow the seeds to breathe/expel
their natural surrounding humidity.
While paper envelopes allow the seed
to stay dry by expelling moisture, a
sealed coffee can or foiled envelope
traps the seed.
I have purchased every competitor's
heirloom seed package and have
opened them after just 2 years. My
findings are exactly as I expected.
If you have purchased heirloom seeds
from any company other than a
reputable seed company like us-
http://www.survivalistseeds.com
or
http://www.rareseeds.com or
http://www.seedsavers.com
you are in for a rude awakening.
So get the word out because there
are a lot of good people thinking
they have a long term food solution,
and will only be starving like many
others when the great crash arrives.
