In our tests, the seeds were stored for five years at temperatures of 4 °C, 18 °C in a warehouse conditions (factor method of seed storage). Seed was stored at all temperatures in the paper, a cloth and plastic bags (factor package for seed storage). It was used the seed of meadow and tall fescue (factor species). For testing was used the three lots by both species (factor seed lots). At five years old seed germination was determined in accordance with the ISTA rules (on filter paper, and at temperature of 20 °C in the dark). Vigor was determined by measuring each seedling (root length cm, shoot length cm and biomass of seedlings g.). The factor method of seed storage and packaging factor was significantly acted in germination and vigor (P˂0.05, P˂0.01), which influenced to meet germination of seeds for placing on the market (germination >75 %). Other examined factors (species and lots) did not have significant effect on seed germination and seedling vigor after five years of storage.
