Seed storage

NarnianGarden · December 11, 2013

This probably has been debated here somewhat, but bear with me.
Various garden sites recommended freezer to be the best option for long term tomato (and pepper) seeds storage. I have done so and stuffed my little freezing compartment with ziploc bags, some with the anti-moisture gel pieces. Now, others say freezer is not so sure and fridge is safer..

Should I removed my seeds from freezer and stuff them to fridge instead? I do not see any moisture condensation and I'm not going to do a germination test with the precious ones (waiting till feb for the first indoor growing efforts)..
I refuse to give up wothout a fight... How do you recommend I handle my treasure until Feb/March?

And oh, I should add I have stored strawberry seeds in freezer and they produced just fine.
