Storing seeds in baseball card sleeves?

[austin87]

Anyone do this? Place my small seed packets into baseball card sleeves for storage and organization?

Great Idea !!

It's always been my practice to store seeds in non-airtight containers. As long as they get some air circulation, that's a great idea!

I have been saving my seeds that way for years...I use a tiny ziplock,then into a coin envelope and then in to my card sleeve...everything into a binder....nice and organized.

Wow, awesome idea! Definitely going to do this for this season's harvest!

Been doing it for a couple years and it's much quicker finding varieties...more organized too in my op.

Brilliant idea. Ideas like this is what makes the forum so good.

This is what I do, I also have sections for baccatums, crosses, wilds ect. Makes it much quicker to find a variety. I got a nice zip up folder from walmart for under $10 and the card sleeves on amazon. I'm at work so don't have any pictures of it handy.

Mine doesn't look as nice as yours with the coin sleeves but I'll get some pictures up soon.

Nice - actually I think I may have seen yours before. I didn't think it was an original idea but I couldn't remember where I saw it (or even if it was with seeds).

I've been using business card sleeves.

Someone threw away my whole seed collection this past year while trying to clean up my kitchen, so I started storing them in tiny ziplocs inside baseball card holders in a binder.  Mine are currently tabbed by year.  Within each year they are alphabetized by base name, then color:
 
7-Pot, Yellow
7-Pot Brainstrain, Red
7-Pot Bubblegum, Red
7-Pot Bubblegum, Yellow
etc.
 
Makes it quick not only to find what I want, but to ensure I am either planting the oldest seeds or rotating them out for fresh ones.

Been wanting to do this for several years, decided to finally do it.

Found seeds from ten years ago, might try a couple to if they are still viable.

I have upgraded the way I store my seeds……this has been working out nicely for me.
