Annona macroprophyllata germination experiment

[Vernmented]

Exciting news on my little experiment. I have germination on two groups of treated/untreated Annona macroprophyllata seeds from Luc and Raul after 2 -3 weeks. Half were soaked in 200ppm ga3 and the other half in water. Here is the main trick. The seeds from Luc were stored in a mason jar for about 2 years and the seeds from Raul were stored for over a year. I will try to germinate the rest without ga3 because I believe that negatively effects the plant health. The treated Luc's White germinated and the untreated haven't come up yet.

How many Annona diversifolia seeds planted?

Storage at room temperature for about 10 months approximates dry-season-then-rainy-season in western Guatemala.

57 total. The Genova Reds didn't come up but I can't remember how old they are. I should also mention that I just checked the Luc's White and only the treated seeds have come up. I will update the original post. I will update this again to see what ended up germinating.

I remember you mentioning that before and that was part of the reason for my storage.  Also, I think Raul mentioned that the professor that made the Ilama PDF discovered that some fresh seeds didn't even have the developed embryo when freshly harvested.
