81. Where should I buy seeds for vegetable towers?
Buy from reputable sources—agriculture universities, organic seed banks, or trusted online marketplaces.
82. Can I save seeds from vegetables I bought from the market?
Yes, but choose heirloom or open-pollinated varieties. Hybrid seeds (F1) may not grow true to type.
83. How long can vegetable seeds be stored?
Most seeds stay viable for 1–3 years if kept in cool, dry, and dark places. Avoid moisture exposure.
84. How do I check seed viability before sowing?
Do a float test. Put seeds in water—discard those that float after 10 minutes.
85. Can seeds be stored in the fridge?
Yes, especially in airtight containers. But allow them to come to room temperature before sowing to avoid condensation.
86. Why are my old seeds not germinating?
They may have lost viability. Age, moisture damage, or poor storage conditions affect germination.
87. Are imported or hybrid seeds suitable for towers?
Yes, if they are compact, disease-resistant, and suited for container growing. Check maturity time and plant height.
88. Should I disinfect seeds before sowing?
Optional but helpful. Soak seeds in warm water with turmeric or a mild fungicide for 30 minutes before sowing.
89. How do I label and organize my seeds?
Use airtight zip pouches or envelopes labeled with name, date, and batch. Store in a seed box.
90. Can I exchange seeds with fellow gardeners?
Absolutely! It’s a great way to diversify crops. Just ensure the seeds are clean, labeled, and non-GMO.
