Cold Storage with Low Relative Humidity (RH)

you may need to store your seeds for a variety of reasons. Numerous items are made to maintain particular ratios of humidity and temperature, such as high humidity in germination chambers and medium temperature with low relative humidity for long-term seed storage.

For the majority of seeds, these circumstances are ideal as they maximize germination rates.

For cold storage, humidity and climate control are crucial. Specifically, ideal circumstances are necessary for seed storage to maintain life and avoid stains, fungus growth, and toxin production.

Ageing is the term for the metabolic processes that seeds go through even while they are dormant.

An excessively high humidity level can cause aging or degeneration, whereas an excessively low humidity level might cause the viability or vigor of the seed to drop.

Because of this, the outside environment is crucial to the extended or long-term storage of seeds.
