Do these seeds need refrigeration or can they just be seeded into soil?

I am not sure about your question but do not purchase this because it was getting shipped from overseas and it was against customs regulation. So mine didn't arrive, but just the report from customs.

No, they don't require refrigeration but I put them in the fridge. I finished the product so I cannont tell you the expiration date

No!! They are fully dried and do not need refrigeration, at any time while they are in the dry state. Once you add water and re-hydrating them yes they need to be refrigeration.

depending on the humidity of your region, they can stay fresh for a few hours to a few days. I found that placing them in plastic bags(gallon size) worked well to preserve them for over a week. I wouldn't suggest refrigerating them because it will add extra moisture, making them potentially soggy.

I first would like to state that Organic Traditions is a reputable company, that being said I usually just use these straight out of the bag, I store mine in the refrigerator to protect the delicate oil in them. I do not was my seeds and I have not sprouted these as of yet.

I refrigerate them in the bag they came in. Take out what you need and let them warm before use. I dip them in clonex solution before use

Yes. I keep my seeds in the freezer in air tight bags and have had some last for over 8 years!

Most seeds last for years if properly stored. After a few years though they start taking longer to germinate and the rate of germination decreases. Also keep in mind that these produce seed that you can save too. To properly store them put them in a zip-lock bag and put them in the refrigerator. They should be good for years.

We just keep them in their box/bag in the pantry (as the previous answer noted, the pantry is cool and dark). Because they are seeds, they don't really have a shelf life.

The seeds probably last up to 2- years in a cool,dry place, like most live seeds. They last longer in the fridge, not freezer. The sprouts last a few days in the refrigerator. I always continue to rinse them at least once a day. They begin to wilt in when they get old. It's similar to keeping lettuce, with a little longer shelf life if you keep them rinsed, maybe up to 5 days.

Yes, you should keep them refrigerated once you get them as clearly stated in the instructions in the package. I guess it's OK not refrigerating them for a short period of time. I have bought Kefir starter from a different manufacturer in Japan and they were sold unrefrigerated at a supermarket.

Different seeds have different ideal storage conditions. However, in general, keep them cool (not frozen), dry and dark. If you have a vacuum sealer, you could vacuum seal them, and then store in your refrigerator. Do not store in the refrigerator if they are not vacuum sealed, as the moist air would be problematic.

No, it doesnt have to be refrigerated. The life is around 2 years after you buy them, the last i bought 6 months ago will expire in 2015

I am not sure but the seeds don't come in a package as pictured. They come in a clear zip lock baggie with a photocopied paper inside that says you need to soak the seeds in the refrigerator for a month before planting.

i let them soak in lukewarm water for an about an hour before placing them in the soil ...this helps the tough seed to get hydrated...and germinate more quicklygerminate more quickly

i have not received my seed yet , apparently it got lost but the shipper is re-sending it to me. in the caribbean here we just plant in the soil , but for other countries with snow you have to refridgerate for at least 2 - 4 weeks before planting.

I store seeds in dry cool place with no sun, and they are good until gone. I stock 2 different varietes and use 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoon per batch once a week. My Amazon history shows I reorder every 3-4 months.
