Brian,
Start by laying the seeds out on paper towel and letting them dry. Keep
them cool, dry, and separated for at least 2 weeks. After that just put
them in a cool, dark and dry location until next year. Dry is the biggest
key to this. They do not do well with any kind of moisture. You have to
watch out for mold growing on the seeds. At the first sign of any mold, get
rid of the affected seeds. Good luck! If you had fun this year, just wait
till next year. The more you know with these AG's the more fun (and work)
they become.

Been watching the beginning conversation of swapping seeds. What is the
best way to harvest seeds that you want to use next year? I assume you take
them from your best growing, biggest specimens? First year with playing
with AGs. I have 2 or three that are bigger than anything I've ever grown.
This is fun!
