Does anyone knoe if it is better to store seeds in zip lock bags or small yellow envelopes? Are there positives and negatives to both?
 
Well, from what i been told you want to keep themin dark, cool, dry place, I store in ziplock myself, but i ahve cabinet that barely open, so they are in the dark about 99.9999999% of the year.
 
I use coin/bead bags.  You can get them at the craft store, just look for the stuff people sell pot in.  lol.  I have never had any problems with germination.  Lasts for years this way if you keep them in a cool/dry place.  
 
I use coin envelopes for the fact that the paper will help pull any little bit of moisture that may be there even when dry. Then the envelopes get grouped and clamped and put in a big ziploc. The clamps came into the picture 2 years ago when the shuffle through opened 2 and I had to trash the seed due to mixing.
