#seeddrying

A trick I learned while working with William Woys Weaver and his Roughwood Seed Collection: after threshing and winnowing or simply shelling beans, it helps to lay the seeds out in a well ventilated room away from sunlight so they can dry down a little more before storage. I give them a week or two. This year, I also have a fan blowing on them and a dehumidifier in the room. This can help prevent molding or rot in storage. Almost everything you see in this photo was meticulously cleaned by the farmers (and me) at @novickurbanfarm yesterday! #seedcleaning #seeddrying #seedkeeping #seedsaving #seed @roughwoodseeds

For larger quantities of dried seeds, use the silica gel method. Silica gel is a porous silicon dioxide that comes in beads form. This beaded form of amorphous silicon dioxide in its can trap water molecules in its irregular pores and thus remove moisture from its surroundings. So, silica gel is often used as a desiccant. One major attraction of using the silica gel method is its reusability. By proper processing, moisture from saturated silica gel beads can be removed and the same set of beads can be reused for drying multiple batches of seeds.
