Wow, thanks for all the tips. Would it be better to put them between moist paper towel in a bag, or direct sow, or place them in a growing medium in a bag? What is the preferred way of germinating?
I like to put the seeds in between damp paper towels in a baggie.
Just change the paper towel frequently. Damp vermiculite works also.
I have had some seeds germinate in two weeks and I have had seeds
take longer. In both cases the seeds were fresh? I haven't figured out
why. I also planted seeds in the Fall and they germinated and sprouted
the next Spring. In the future if I have seeds that don't germinate within
2 weeks I was going to scarify the outer seed coat?
