2/20    For how long can you keep seeds in a dry and cool place before planting
        them?  I'm wondering about Jacaranda or Castanea seeds but my question
        is more general.  Note that I'm NOT asking about bulbs.  Thanks.
        \_ if you keep them more than 53 days and 6 hours, they will all die.
           \_ That's only in equitorial regions man.  I think that's more
              like 57 days and 19 hours in more temperate regions.
        \_ you can keep them indefinitely.  The longer you keep them the less
            likely they will sprout when planted.  Its not an absolute step
            function, and the 'half life' of the seeds depends on the seed.
