long-term storage of ginger seeds?

Hi all,

I did a search for this since there is a seed storage forum and didn't see what I was looking for.

I am in the process of collecting lots (hopefully!) of ginger (and possibly heliconia) seeds and I want to plant them all at the same time (anywhere from a week to several months from now, depending on how long it takes to find enough.) This is for a project I'm doing growing gingers in different light conditions.

I'm in Costa Rica and I'm worried about the seeds getting moldy before I plant them. I thought about putting them in the fridge or freezer but I wasn't sure that was a good idea with tropical seeds.

Any suggestions on how to store my seeds until planting??

Thanks!!

Maya
