 Hi group, I recieved so much help in my quest for pumplin seeds that now
 I have a few extra seeds for next year. My question now  is how do I
 save these seeds til next year? I don't know if i should freeze them or
 refridgerate them of just leave them in an open container where the air
 can keep them dry. Bye the way my plants are looking good but not
 starting to run yet, may be a late harvest. >>


I have frozen seeds for as long as 10 years with great success.  In the
Spring I plant them right from the freezer.  This year I planted a 1991 Mike
MacDonald 717 and had 100% germination.
