We only grow about 25 plants now, all of them in pots
and all of them are considered house plants. They will
be culled based on size and only the smallest plants
will get to stay. Right now, I'm just keeping them for
the seeds.
As for seeds. I really have no idea how long seeds can
be viable for. I do know that they say that the longer
the seeds wait, the less possibility for viability.
That said, I also know for a fact that seeds that have
been kept properly have been known to propogate 1000s
of years after harvest... What is "properly"... ask
those seeds.
I know, not helpful, but I had to chime in.
