How to store papaya seeds
« on: April 12, 2020, 10:02:28 PM »
Hello Everyone, 

Hope you all enjoyed your Easter and I hope all of you have been safe during these trying times.

I harvested Papayas that the seeds came from Bangladesh.  It seems to be a wild variety because none of the fruit grows uniform.  It’s extremely sweet when ripe and stays green for a very long time which tells me it’s good for shipping.  I harvested maybe 200 seeds from the best shaped fruit and waited for it to completely ripen.  My concern is how to store these seeds in the meantime since I have to stay home during this quarantine.  Anyone know how to properly store Papaya Seeds properly?

Thank you for your time.

Best Regards,
Alex

Hi Alex,

I just clean them, dry them out and store at room temp.  There may be other methods, but this one has worked for me.

Hope all is well with you.

Best regards,
Scott
