Wash the seeds with alkaline water until the surface of the seeds is clean and greasy, then you can dry them in the sun for a day. After removing some of the water content, you can store them. Or leave it in a ventilated place to dry. But the sun can be properly sterilized, it is best to soak in the white fungicide solution for 10 minutes before drying, release bacteria to prevent insects.

It is also necessary to prevent the seeds from sprouting suddenly. So finally keep it in a sealed glass bottle or in a sealed plastic bag or porcelain bottle, so it can be well preserved. Sand storage can also be used to maintain seed vitality, but a small amount of mildew may occur.
