eft in seeds can easily lead to seed rot or the development of molds that can spread, often effecting a whole batch of saved seeds. This can lead to a reduction in seed viability, and at worst loss of all seed.

Drying seeds at home involves air drying. Spreading collected seeds out on plate or paper towel in cool dry area, leaving some space for air flow between seeds.

Seeds ideal moisture content varies from species to species, but most require a moisture retention rate between 5 percent and 8 percent. As home growers/savers our best access to that accuracy is our tried/true experiential knowledge.

Dry seed typically for a few weeks turning seeds over then physically feeling for dampness and use your amazing intuition. If unsure leave out a couple more days -weeks. 4-6 weeks ideal for most to be safe. Store in low humidity environments always!
