Have you used this method before ?
Just curious. I store mine in "stall mode " like that from October - early January. Just the nuts in a bag with about a 1" opening at the top for a little air flow. There is still a lot of condensation on the top. Which I like. It's keeping the nuts moist, without the moisture being directly on them. All that moisture is coming directly out of the nut. If I keep opening it, to let that moisture out, I'll be stealing more moisture from the nut. That's when I get that gap between the nut and the shell, turning them into floaters.
Around Jan 15, I switch to adding moist long leafed spaghnum moss until they sprout a radical 60-90 days later. That usually allows me to grow them to grow indoors for 12 weeks in the grow trays. Then i can start acclimation them to outdoors and transfer into 1 gal pots.
