Veg seed storage times
Find out which veg seeds store the longest, and which are best bought fresh each year, in our No Fuss Guide.

In this No Fuss video guide, Alan Titchmarsh demonstrates which veg seeds don't store well and are best sown fresh every year, and which ones last for up to five years before you need to replace them. Alan also demonstrates how to test seed viability using kitchen towel and a bit of water.
