in a cool, dry, dark place.
Check your seeds expiration date. Some seeds are not good to store over the years…most are ok.
Go over to the Gardening forum…
Learn on YouTube videos…try to get a knowledgeable gardener that’s in or close to your growing zone.

I’m in Michigan and MiGardener is a YouTube creator that has a huge garden and greenhouse…he’s located almost right across the Bay from where I am…same weather.

The Millennial Gardener is another, he’s located in southeastern coastal North Carolina. Big gardens.good info

James Prigioni has great info.search at YouTube.

Over at the Gardening Forum our own member NewHendoLib, the host. has some videos that may be of help.
