I LOVE this method for organising my seeds

As our seed collections grow, it gets harder to find things, meaning we often buy seeds we don't need, or badly stored seeds don't last and need to be replaced. So today I'm going to share the best seed-organizing method ever I've ever come up with and tell you how it can help save you money. This seed organisation method is a game changer.
I've got two options for you so that you can customise things to suit how you want to store and organise your seed collection.

@In the Garden with Eli and Kate Absolutely, don't know where they come from, it's very strange!

[@robinscontainergarden]

Love it, Eli! I use the same box as yours (with the colours) and it has simplified my seed storage since I joined the "we have too many seeds" club 😂 the second box you have would also help for succession sowing. Once you've shown those seeds for one month, you can shift the seed packet over to the next time they need sown instead of putting them back in their other box. I love your alternative, as well. My first seed storage was very basic and got out of hand really quickly, so I was glad to see your solution way back.

[@gretroman8235]

I have those organizers but never thought to label by planting month. I also never can find my bean and pea seeds for late summer sowing. Good tips. One other enemy of not storing in water proof containers is varmints. For me, mice got into sunflower seeds after several purchases if I did not immediately put in proper mouse proof storage. Just one day of opportunity is all it took for them to find them. And some seeds have inoculations and antifungal coating. Keep sending us those great hobby garden tips.

[@eliandkate]

Oh no… did the mice eat everything???

[@gretroman8235]

@@eliandkate Just beans, pea, and sunflower seeds. My favorite veggies and flower. Animals destroy young sunflower plants or dig up seeds. I have watched them do it. I have had deer pull down mature mammoth sunflowers heads before I could harvest them. But I do get a lot of enjoyment from watching animals living in the country. They gotta eat too.

Your box for March and April is going to be bursting! 😄 I store my seeds by month of sowing as well, and move the packet to the next month (or return to same month) for succession sowing. I love the system because it helps keep me from forgetting to sow something in the right month. Not that that has EVER happened before. I have a filing system right now, with dividers by month and just slot my seeds in there. I have a separate one for ornamentals. I am hoping to invest in a new box though. I keep them in the pantry, which is cool all year round (and fridge cold in winter) and dark. And I totally relate to seeds falling through the letterbox. I ordered some today. I couldn't help myself. I got annoyed that I couldn't find a petunia mix that I liked so I ordered Calibrachoa Million Bells instead. I've not grown them before, but the colours look soooo pretty. The things we do when we have 5 minutes to drink tea while browsing seed websites on our phones. 🙄 Love and hugs from down south xx

[@stevesallotmentdiaries]

I do almost pretty much the same one box for the seeds by type then the other one for the next 4-6 weeks rather than organising for the whole year. That way I can put something like salads in the first one and then once sowed move the packet to the box 2 or 3 weeks ahead so I know to sow again for succession sowing. Then the seeds I sow continuously throughout the year just keeping moving down the chain.

[@eliandkate]

Great video! My seeds are sorted by type of seed, kind of like your first box. Then, to know what to sow when, I have an Excel document that is sorted by month and even with columns that lets me know what should be sown beginning, middle or end of each month. In my boxes and in the document there are only seeds that "have a job", ie I am planning to sow them this season. The rest are taken out to be passed on to someone else (seeds for perennial are the exception). In this way, I do not need the 2nd box and the document gives me space to take notes.

[@eliandkate]

Ah sounds like my seed sowing plan. I shared the spreadsheet with everyone too 😍

[@docgrannrsgardencooking8719]

Yeah!!!

[@Cali-Girl]

I've been using ziplock freezer bags too, they can be laid in line inside a sealable box. You just label the bags with a marker. I also jot the dates and viability times on the front of individual packets. This method is quick, efficient, and cheap. When seeds are older, I expect lower germination rates and sow mored densely.

[@eliandkate]

Have you tried doing germination tests for older seeds to give you an idea of what to expect, germination wise?

[@myrondrong6636]

the question below this one i am from ontario canada 🥔

[@j.b.6855]

You are right, organizing seeds is important, especially if you have a big garden. I started out in a small cardboard box, and by year 3 it was a mess. I got one of those photo cases with the colored sections like you have and its great. But I am also into saving seed. I try to buy seeds of a variety only once. Being older I have a few prescriptions, the bigger empty bottles are great for bulk storage of seeds if you wash them out, like 1000 Zinnia seeds or Beans. Now I only have to find a way to organize the bottles.

[@eliandkate]

Oh the bottles are a good idea I have a million of those little brown envelopes (left overs from making wedding favours) and I’ve used them for storing seeds, stupidly left them in the greenhouse over winter and they got damp 😢

[@DivaBowie]

I have the clear photo boxes (thanks to you!). For my flowers I label them by height range, so if I need something tall for the back of the border I don't have to rummage through the small ones. Separate one for trailing plants for baskets. They're all beautifully organised, and yet I still need more 🤣

[@eliandkate]

Oh that’s genius 😍😍😍

[@christinamoxon]

Oh, that's a good idea. I have mine orgnaised by area of the garden. So, full sun, part shade, shade and pots, baskets and wall planters. But in that, I could do height as well, that would be really useful!

[@giaannstdenis3661]

Eli, as usual, you made me smile. I love your idea of having seeds sub-organized by month! I plan to use index cards for each month with the intended crops listed. (My studio apartment is the size of a postage stamp, so space is always an issue!) The index cards will dovetail nicely with my garden journaling and since my budget does not allow for ordering seeds all at once, my alphabetized seeds will remain in one place so I can double check for duplicates. Experiments, organization, problem solving... These are the things I like best about your channel, but wait! There is also the amusement factor!

What i do with mine is new seeds in one box and open seeds that have been used in another box, so when i go to plant say Carrots and Onions i check the open packet box first to seed if there are any in there, if not then i go to the new seeds box and see if i bought a new packet and put it in there.

It was filmed last week. Is it the Pak Choi and mustards you are thinking are unusual? 😂 you’re maybe new to the channel… this were sown in September last year, I grow all year round, so I sowed a bunch of greens in late Aug/early September to grow and eat through winter. That’s the last of it all now.

@In the Garden with Eli and Kate more, new to growing 😆. I'm not used to seeing harvest in Feb. Love your channel ❤️

😂😂😂😂 that’s true actually. Yeah you can relax…. No pressure cause you’d need to jump in your Time Machine and go sow in Aug… but you know, with gas and electric prices you might want to be sparing about using your time machine
