Would like to seek some help getting platonia insignis seeds to germinate. Tried 2 separate batches (both from reputable sources) recently and nothing germinated. I tried soaking 2 in strong distilled drinking alcohol, 2 in 40c distilled water and 2 were soaked in 350 ppm of ga3 for 24 hours. They were then placed in a baggy with damp coco fiber. Kept at about 85f. They began to grow what looked like white mold and had a boggy feeling after about a month and then turned to mush by the second month.
The second batch was just soaked in H20 over night and then planted in some potting mix (coco fiber, perlite, vermiculite) and kept in the green house with a bag on the top to maintain humidity. Those didn't get the moldy white stuff but they also turned to mush around the second month.
Anyone having success germinating these have any tips?
