Oh ok, thats how im doing it but you can only store it like that for so long. I thought maybe you had em in the freezer, im still trying to figure out how to do that so i can store pollen longer then a couple months.

I honestly think it'll store for years in a drawer like this. there really is no logical reason why the DNA would decay . . .

The DNA wont decay, but the pollen will loose its viability. I had a friend who sent me pollen and it didnt take to my ladies cause it was not stored correctly.

I don't wanna act like a know it all like chitown, :lol: but pollen, if stored in a refridgerator, will drastically lose it's viabilty after 18 months. stored at room temp, viabilty is even less. just an fyi..:joint:

Storing it in Jars wont make it last that long, you have to properly store it in the freezer with something to draw the moisture away from the pollen.

EDIT: Doc you beat me to it lol

I keep mine in black film canisters with small silica packets stuck to the lids in the freezer. Was my first time collecting pollen, but I guess I'll see how long it says viable stored in this manner.
