The experiment was conducted at LEHRI from January 2010 to December2010. A Split Plot Design with three replications was used with packing method as the main plot and storage period as the subplot. After 6 mount Cucumber seed germination (82%) was significantly higher when stored at room temperature in vacuum packed alumunium foil sachets, than all other packing methods. The percentage of Cucumber seed  which around 60% after 4 mount to 21% and 10% after 6 mounts respectively.
