Oh boy, my stuff doesn't look that great, but it works for me.. I have about 6 of these that contain three square boxes each, that can be stacked together with lids on top. (12 of the square containers are all mgs) a couple others hold supplies, ect. this is a crude photo of mine while I was sorting some for mailing out last month. They are not all in this photo.

most of the seeds are double enveloped and then put sideways... all in alpha, by I. nils, purps, species.. each one has it's own box/boxes. These, I believe were the I. nils, then I have more with the crosses. I have to tell you all, I hate going thru them because it is so hard to decide which ones to grow. I use the same system for collecting seeds.

I line up several 3x6 yellow manila coin envelopes, in alpha according to what I am harvesting, then let them dry in the paper envelopes, then transfer those seeds into baggies, then put the baggies in other yet a new 3x6 coin envelope and store it away into the box it belongs (purp, nils, etc). The envelopes used for collecting seeds are reused (i post the names in pencil so I can erase after that plant is done producing seeds),


Waving hello to everyone,

good to see you Frank!
