What is the prefered method for protecting and storing pollen.How long is it Viable ??Opinions and Experiences welcome.
use a container that wont promote moisture, use some type of dryin agent in your container, like those little packs in jerky, raw rice and such.
it willl last for years if ya keep it sealed and dont mess with it.
I don't think those little packs you find in foodstuffs are actually dessicants. They are most likely oxygen absorbers as oxygen makes stored food go bad and getting the oxygen out makes it last longer and keeps down the chances of bugs and such hatching.
I put a reuseable wireless dehumidifier in a tupperware with my pollen for a while to make sure it is dry before I freeze it. I have something like this:
I've also used it in my curing process before with good results.
