Why Packaging Matters: How We Keep Smiley Seeds Fresh & Viable

At Smiley Seeds, our packaging is built for real-world storage. Discover how Mylar bags, mini tubes, and silica gel preserve your seeds until you’re ready to grow.

At Smiley Seeds, we believe good genetics deserve better packaging. That means no fluff, no flashy gimmicks — just a clean, protective system that preserves the quality of every seed you buy.

We’ve designed our packaging to fight off the real threats to cannabis seeds: light, heat, and moisture. From airtight mini tubes to foil-sealed Mylar bags, every step we take is aimed at keeping seeds viable, stable, and strong — right until you’re ready to plant them.

Seed Enemies: What We're Defending Against

Let’s break it down:

  • Moisture encourages mold and early breakdown
  • Light degrades cannabinoids and weakens germination
  • Heat speeds up deterioration

That’s why all our seeds are:

  • Packed in sealed plastic mini tubes
  • Contain silica gel balls to trap moisture
  • Stored inside foil-lined Mylar bags to block light

How to Store Your Seeds at Home

Once they arrive, here’s how to keep them happy:

  • Cool: 4°C to 11°C is ideal
  • Dark: Avoid exposure to light
  • Dry: Store in airtight containers to avoid humidity

Storage tips: A lab fridge is best. Alternatively, use a fridge drawer in an airtight container or a dark cupboard with consistent temps.

Shelf Storage Mistakes to Avoid

If you’re stocking or reselling seeds, follow this advice:

  • Don’t hang sealed seed packs on retail racks
  • Don’t display live seeds on or in counters
  • Always use dummy packs for display

What We Use at Smiley Seeds

Plastic Mini Tubes with Silica

  • Airtight and crush-resistant
  • Packed with silica gel balls to manage moisture
  • Protects seed integrity from fridge to grow room

Foil-Lined Mylar Bags

  • Custom screen-printed and heat-sealed
  • Lightproof, moisture-resistant barrier
  • Used exclusively as outer packaging for added security

Avoid These Common Packaging Pitfalls

Some seed packs out there just don’t cut it. Watch out for:

  • Paper envelopes or matchbooks – offer no protection from light or humidity
  • Clear or see-through packaging – exposes seeds to damaging light
  • Cardboard boxes – absorb moisture and aren’t fridge-safe
  • Retail blister packs with cardboard backing – good for looks, bad for long-term storage

If it can’t block light or handle moisture, it puts your grow at risk.

Final Word from Smiley Seeds

We care about what we send out. Every pack is stored cold, sealed tight, and built to last. We use packaging that protects — so you get seeds that pop when the time is right.

Whether you're storing them or sowing them, your Smiley Seeds are ready. Just give them the right environment — and let nature do the rest.
