So in the past 6 months we had a very easy trial run, end of the world scenario. There were a few essentials that were moderately difficult to grab and find in stores, toilet paper, paper towels, flour, yeast...... easily correctable.
But one of the biggest things personally for me was fresh vegetables:
I googled seeds: it says 3-4 year shelf life. Is this true?
I would like to load up on Lettuce, cukes, tomatoes, corn, brocc, spinach, asstd other garden vegetables, from seed.
Google says you can store seeds in an air-tight glass jar in the fridge/freezer and plant them years later. Anyone done this?
should I start from pots? indoors? grow lights needed?
Any other advice on long term seed storage / gardening appreciated.
TIA
