How to Save Seeds - The Best Secret Ever! 

Creative people amazes me. I would not even have thought to decorate the jars that way.

What I do is save the silica packets from vitamins and other things. I have a jar of them and put them in with my seeds.

There's beauty in an elder's wrinkled face. Amazing

"Rotten seeds and broken dreams.." Loved this video!

I just gotta say this channel has been the best thing that has ever happened to me in my gardening life! Your channel has helped me learn so much and improved the conditions of my vegetables tremendously! Your videos are so fun to watch and easy to understand! Keep doing what you do! You are awesome!

Really like where you're taking your videos Wish there were more shows out there like this.

Hooray, another video!! 😍 What a perfect end to my day.

Loved the silica idea. I think I should use it to save seeds. Although I do recycle glass jars but the seeds tend to mould. Therefore silica will be perfect. Thanks Charu

When you were winnowing those zinnia seeds it looked like gardeners fairy dust !!! such an amazingly creative way of reusing and recycling old bottles, loved the seed saving video from start to finish, well done Siloe and thank you ☺

Thank you for showing us such an aesthetic way of gardening. Each of your videos is filled with a calm beauty.

You've always had high production value in your work but this is next level stuff. Thanks for producing such quality content.

Great video. Always enjoy the narrative style!

There is indeed beauty in the seeds, I grow most everything FOR their seeds! I have learned the hard way how to store the seed, some I honestly thought they were dry enough then placed in a large ziploc well it molded and what a sad waste but now I know you not only have to dry the seed but you must let them cure also! I find it so rewarding to grow and collect seed and save !!!

You are very self-sufficient, possess a gift of creativity and just amazing.. I luv that you're doing a voice over narration on things and steps we need to know.. and you're just in the background accomplishing these things.. well thought out content..

My father was a landscape gardener and tried many ways of drying seed, his best way was to place seed in a thin paper bag and using a satety pin, pinning the top of the bag to a curtain so that the bag was between window glass and curtain fabric. We had very productive gardens both vegetable and flowers plus a wonderful orchard. Growing up in that orchard made my childhood blissful, the perfect all enclosing refuge, particularly needed since primary school was absolutely ghastly and a complete and utter waste of my time.

Such a great video - thank you! I collected seeds for the first time this year and truly loved it! I especially liked having so many to share with others. Thanks for the storage tips too - who would've thought kitty litter would be so helpful?!

I stumbled upon your video just yesterday, and subscribed immediately after watching for the first time. You are blessed, Alhumdulillah! Your videos are both poetic and artistic packed with beneficial info. Thank you from India :)

lovely video! really appreciated the bit about the dying plant being beautiful too!

I loved this! Gardening tips AND a craft project 😍😍😍

I love the quality of your work. Thankyou for keeping up the good work, and not giving up even if youtube does not support or give better exposition. We the viewers appreciate all you do.

I leave my seeds in napkins. Once dry, roll it up, label, rubber band tighten , store in paper bag…that’s it, lol. Not as prettily stored like yours. I appreciate your creative ideas!

You can get empty teabags and fill them with silica, that way your crystal packets are as pretty as your jars.

Thanks, been looking for someone to show how to save seed in practical basic way without turning it into a major life consuming process. Thanks again. I grew up in Baltimore around the domino sugar sign, now I live near Gettysburg PA Love your videos.

I learned something today, And to you sir, I say thank ye.

This is my first video of yours . This is amazing , informative and artistic too .😊😁

"...much like there is beauty in a wrinkled elder's face." Never subscribed so quickly to someone! Excited to learn from you!

Dang. Thats some good stuff! Lots of info without unneeded pauses

You can get chalk board labels at the dollar tree or any craft store. They even have chalk board tape.

Youre awesome dude. I like what you said about people’s “preconceived notions of beauty”. People are so out of touch nowadays that they wouldn’t know beauty if it hit them in the head. Not that its their fault. I can feel it though, people are waking up to this stuff. Imagine a world of people saving seed, and living a more independent lifestyle.

Yet again another video with excellent narrative and graphics!! Great idea! The jars look so neat! Keep it up! There is a profound philosophy you transmit in every of your videos, I appreciate that a lot! Thank you!

I miss your wisdom, wish you were making more frequent videos!I just love your content I always learn/re-learn so much from you.

I have so many good zinnia seed in baggies with silica packs. They give off so many seeds!

Wow... So impressed with the effort you put into making your videos. 👍 + Subscribed! I love that you do your homework and have everything prepared to give us a quality video that is thorough and clean. ThanQ. You are a lovely man. : )

Yay! Another video with beautiful content, thoughtfully delivered. The introduction to the ad break was great! It was a 90sec ad so I let it play and got some water because I knew there was more from S.H. to come. :) Thank you Siloe for the new season. It is much appreciated as our summer is closing here in Australia and it's time for our heat loving seeds to be packed away. The garden signs are lovely too. Xxx thank you for the latest video.

i love your appreciation for the beauty of all the stages of life!

In fact I could watch you all day. I'm subbed.

Another truly beautiful & useful video, Mr. Oliveira. I draw so much inspiration from your garden practices. I am growing flowers for the first time this year (Zinnia, Cosmos and Marigolds primarily) and will definitely employ this method to save seeds at the end of the season. Unfortunately, I have to rely pretty heavily on hybrid seeds for my vegetables. I would love to grow heirloom only, but my garden grows under a canopy of oak trees and barely gets 3-4 hrs of direct sun a day. The hybrid seeds help compensate for increased disease/pest issues I experience. But I will make up these beautiful jars to save my flower seeds in, for sure! Thank you so much!

Always very helpful and very informative yet again I love you man

Thank you for easy understanding about seeds, you teach it so natural too. We was wondering if you would be making more of the cute seed jars to sell. I love from garden to cooking to table and seeing the beautiful dishes you use. I see the display of shells and wonder if one day you would take one out for us to see closer and tell us about the shell, where they naturally come from(are crushed shells good for the soil for tomatoes ?) . Love seeing the beautiful furniture in your home, feels relaxing and calming, not like the harsh modern furniture. Seeing the indoor plants around you gives softness. I enjoy the clips from the past, photos from the past, interesting history. Your videos are always a joy to watch and great to learn from because it is snips of different things. Sometimes I watch your videos again because I love watching them very much. You are a real treasure for many of us. Sunday routine of your videos help end the week delightfully. Thank you for the subtitles for people like us. Look forward to see the new changes your doing in the new year but I like they way you do them now because i feel they are really brilliant. Your videos are more than highly excellent. Not yet seen anyone do better. Take care and keep safe.

Thank you for sharing!!!!!!!!!!!

You make the nicest videos, full of information and wonderfully photographed. It's so nice to have information and pleasing design. Thanks!

I love your idea with the glass yars, I usually use paper bags but your idea is super cute!! Great style, I go on with the other videos!

This was a very nice video ! Thank you !

Thank you so much sir for the video I don’t know much about gardening but I’m learning 🙏🏽“Everyday you learn something new”.

You are truly inspirational Thank You x

Very creative idea with the jars. And, wow, silica is a genius tip. I have saved seeds, especially from my zinnias, but never considered this. I save silica pacs from my various vitamins that could work in small jars. Well, What a great video!

This video must have taken so long to make! So many clips. Thanks for helping me with seed saving.

I love your video man, epic editing! : )

Just found your channel. I have a cat with very few teeth that eats baby food. I have been saving the jars and now I can save my seeds in them. I really like your channel and I subscribed! 🎃

I love your videos. So creative from starting in the garden, preparing the soil for the season ahead, seed saving tips and cooking fantastic meals. Thank you :-)

Just found your channel and I love it! Saving seeds is really important especially because Monsanto is pattenting seeds so the farmers/gardeners can't sustain themselves and have to buy seeds instead. Your videos are very educational and inspiring. Muito obrigado da Sérvia!

You are a good teacher 🤓

Thanks ! i did not know about the radish seeds being edable. :)

Your videos are beautiful. A sua voz é musical e tranquila de escutar. I would love if you'd spend more time showing your art. Like the seed jars with the seeds in the cabinet. The take was so short, it left me craving to see more of them. 😃

Very classy intro and commercial break. Love the art on the thumbnail. great work man!

Awesome idea!

Finally a seed collecting video I understand. Thank you very much!

Very nice video and I love how you make your own chalkboard writing labels.

U r so awesome just love u and your channel!!!

Love this video! From a devoted gardener, thank you for all the hard work producing this. My husband and I are wanting to grow heirloom variety cutting flowers and vegetables, something we haven’t done before. How do you go about preserving the purity of heirloom seeds by the end of the season without cross pollination? ❤️🌱🍅🥕🌻🌸

Thanks for the video I kept collars seeds in a jar that I harvested WITHOUT the silica packets and None germinated.... happy I found this. I presume they had moisture in the jar as they smelled real bad when I opened up the following year

I love this video its perfect. Thank you so much

Thank you for that great information

Your videos are so good !

That sounds like a wonderful book, I gotta find it! Great video!

Oooh my gosh. Thank you.You're answering so many questions!

Really cool and easily available silica tip. Thank you 😁

You do a fantastic job making your videos

omgoodness, that was so good and so helpful. I am going to make some of these. I am so glad to have found out about the kitty litter "silica". I didn't know that. Thank you so much. I love finding ways to save money like that.

Good topic, good video and spring is just around the corner!

Awesome tip!! I'll definitely try the cat litter! Thanks for sharing! Good to have new videos....bons plantios!!

PERFECT METHOD! Should I keep those seed jars in the fridge? Cause it's said that seeds need to be stored in a cool place.

Looks Great!!

I love saving my seeds. I don't have access to baby food jars so I use masking tape and used prescription bottles. I also regrow store produce whenever possible :)

Really enjoyed this! Thanks for all this info, great storage jar idea, and especially about the silicon!

Great video! I did not know about the kitty litter. I'm so glad to find out about this trick!

You're back! Nice to see you!

Great video. Thank you.

You're style of video is so addicting! I'm binge watching your videos haha.

Awesome video!!!!

What a lovely video. I’ll be returning to it in autumn for seed saving advice. P.s I’m germinating my seeds on plates after watching your video on the subject. It works brilliantly. Thank you xxx

Love, Light, Peace & Gratitude.

Very clever on the spray paint

Love your creativity Siloe! :)

Hey, thanks man! I`m inspired and i`m going to give your idea a try.

Completely enjoyed this thank you

Great tip! Thanks!

Great video. _Seeds will die if dried beyond 3% humidity_ so i would advise not to leave the silica packet with the seeds (assuming they werent freshly harvested) longer than 5-7 days

Great video and blessing. Thank you for the education.

Thanks for sharing 👍 😊 😀

Excellent information, and top notch presentation.

love these tips. might just have to spray all my mason jars... I always have a tough time deciding how to label them.

Wow! Thank you for making this video, I'm learning so much from you!

Once again, excellent and informative

Great video, informational and enjoyable
