Seeds Freeze-Dried Boosts Seed Storage Life Experiment
U S Department of Agriculture researchers freeze-dry vegetable seeds using equipment like coffee freeze-dryers to extend storage life about fourfold. Lowell Woodstock and Eliora Schroeder tested freeze-dried and conventional seeds at 77, 104 and 122 degrees F for 3, 6, and 12 months, in sealed containers. After six months at 122 F, germination varied from 66 percent for onions to 82 percent for parsley in freeze-dried seeds, while none of the conventionally dried seeds survived. With a year storage, germination for freeze-dried ranged around 66 percent for onions, parsley 74 percent, versus zero for normally dried seeds.
