Storing seeds in fridge

rocks

In Bloom
Im currently growing out seeds that I carelessly stored and wow its incredible how they degrade when you store them like a bonehead.

So a quick question... I have a newer fridge and you can tell its newer because the ability to adjust the thing is seriously limited. The best setting I can find is 37 degrees F.
Ive got my precious beans stored in a paper bag in the fridge:

Is this gonna be OK? I gotta be covert and this is the best solution... paper bag way in the back

Fridge for the win on short storage like a year, the freezer for longer.
I'd at least use some kind of airtight container though, i even through a dessicant pack in.
 
I put the seeds I've chucked in tiny labeled glass viles..The viles into baggies..the baggies buried in white rice in a one gallon jar that's stored in the fridge..Breeder packs in a separate one gallon jar in baggies also buried in rice .One thing I can tell ya is I again popped some beans the beginning of this year that I chucked at least 12 years ago with excellent germination...I believe @woodhippy successfully popped some of those beans also..Still have a keeper cut Moco menthol going out of those beans..I learned this from a older grower on RIU lots of years ago and have never done it any other way.. Literally thousands of beans in there that have some major age on them that would still pop with no problem
