seed growing

[haffster]

my seeds have not germinated, any suggestions on how to get them to grow?

haffster, i usually just get some paper towel, and wet it. I make sure the towel isnt dripping and place it on a small plate. I place the seeds on the towel then fold half the towel over them. I then grab another plate and chuck it upside down on top and in the cupboard. Check the paper towel to make sure it hasnt dried up. Once the seeds crack and I see a tail I just pop em into my growing medium.

 

Goodluck

or - even easier - toss em in a glass of water... then you dont need to constantly check the paper towels for moisture/panic when you go out for 10 minutes... i dunno, either way works, both as good as each other, but if youre like me water is less stress inducing

Float them on top of the water. If they sink they often rot.

How are you trying to germinate them and for how long so far?

Best way ive found is to throw them in a glass of water and put the glass some where warm, i put mine on top of the austar box with a VB stubby cooler on top of glass to keep em dark most times they crack within 24hrs
