Storage and germination of seeds depend upon what the seeds are and what the natural environmental conditions are for that seed in it's natural environment. Cannabis seeds should be stored in the fridge or freezer, this mimics the winter and is called "cold stratification".

Not the best for longterm ph2. Should at least be kept in a fridge. Will keep'em germinating longer. Like Gojo says not all seed stores the same. Peace GS
