Ah I've had them in the freezer. Probably not the best storage solution
I mean I've heard people store them in the freezer I just personally haven't. And my personal opinion I feel like any moisture that's trapped in that seat or around it when you freeze it could damage it but I have no signs behind that hell even storing your seeds in the fridge with rice to suck moisture out of the air works!! Then again it could also not have been you like someone else posted that seems to be a reoccurring thing lately

Preach man.

I've never put my seeds in the freezer....I live where the temperature changes pretty rapidly day to day and even morning to night....I store my seed packs in a plastic container and inside a duffle bag....I've stored said bag inside a car overnight during extreme temp changes....in a basement....in a bedroom.....pretty much everywhere....how many seeds have failed to germinate for me? Less than 5.....how many of those failed to sprout when put in soil? 0.....however I had 1 take forever to sprout and once it did; it died immediately. (Rainbow chip f2)

I've also had 100% germination on seeds over 3 years old as well.

That's how I know some ppl are just screwing up how they're germinating....they might be doing a proven method; but screwing up a step somewhere or having something altering their results.

Yeah I'm more thinking long-term storage I don't know what people's time frame for seed storage is but I have more seeds that I can ever grow so I tried to store em the best I can haha and yeah my germination process is always spot on anything after that is nature and natural selection!!!

Had mine in the fridge for years, in a dry ammo box with silica packets, now freezer the last 8-9 months or so. 12/13 germ rate the most recent pack

You are not alone. Germination issues have been reported with these guys lately by multiple parties.
no shit, I just purchase 3 packs on 4/20 directly from clearwater. I decided to pop a pack of zoap x blue razzicle. I only had 3 that germinated from the whole pack, and the ones that did, the tap root is very short and weak. I know they are gonna say user error, but I have germinated other brands of seeds with no issues. now I'm worried my other 2 packs will have the same problems. I have emailed them regarding this a day ago, hopefully they respond.

I store em in a freezer- germ 10-15 year old seeds successfully all the time. Look at how they store/preserve seeds in the Global Artic Seed Vault. I trust real scientists, not bro- science.

Lime og x Karma Sour d

I only popped 1 seed and it germinated.....if using the cup of water method; I've had instances where they don't pop- throw them in soil and they will pop up; later than the other strains but they will pop up just be very patient.
