no, the fridge has too high of a humidity. a cool, dry, dark place will keep them poppin' fresh for longer. i've heard you can also freeze them, but i wouldn't suggest it.

You don't want them in the fridge or other high humidity place as they'll start to condense moisture and get slimy...not good.
I have a strain that the seeds are over 5 years old...and just popped some to see if they'd grow. Very lucky for me as the strain is extinct now.

in baggies, in my smoke drawer of my computer desk, along with my tray and my pieces.

I have stored seeds in fridge for a long time. ( i know , i know )
But, they are in a snap lock, in side a air tight tupperware and inside the vegetable crisper. As that is how I have stored veggy seeds for years, old habits die hard I suppose.
I have had seeds for yrs that still germ quickly !

I freeze mine and only take them out long enough to get what I want to plant. I also do the same with my garden vegetable seeds. I freeze them in their packets.
I have never had any issues doing that, and I hear vegetable seed producers freeze their seeds in between seasons.
I agree that a fridge would have too much humidity.
