Saving Crown Prince Seed
« on: January 07, 2013, 17:17 »
Hi All,
I have just put my seed order in & the Crown Prince packet has 20 seeds in it of which I only need half for this season.

Do CP squash seeds store well? If so what is the best way to store this type of seed for next season, I have always used a metal tin with a lid in the garage for my other seeds and was wondering if this is okay or can you freeze seeds from one year to another.

They'll keep for years in the packet in a tin or 'tupperware' box  ;)

Thanks Mum, that is splendid news.

I wonder could you advise me how to persuade Mrs FB that the dress she bought only last week will last for years and not need replacing by mid February  ::)

Crown Prince won't go out of fashion - but the dress sure will  ::)  do you think she would be prepared to keep it in its bag in a box?  Nah - no chance  :lol:

Yes.
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

Ahh, Ok.
Was going to sugest keeping the seeds from the fruit rather than the pack!
