storing Datura seeds

Post by greenpassion »

I have several Datura's that have the prickly green seed pods forming. I've collected several pods which have opened and spilled seeds. I want to store these in order to start them this coming spring inside. What's the best way to do this?

As long as these are dry, I'd put them in an air tight container as store them in a cool dark place. Daturas have a 30 year shelf life.
