did that so I could run a cold dry cycle.  When I finished drying there was one 
cross that wasn't as dry as the others so  when I put them back in the 
bathroom and they warmed up I got a  germinant.  So I've been keeping the seeds in a 
state of humid but  exposed to the air in these sample cups for about three 
weeks now.  Most  (if not all) of those crosses which had germinated one seed 
and then quit have  restarted.  A few 'stubborn' crosses have started to 
germinate, and the  process of checking takes less time.

But you learn  something new everyday.>>>
 
 Christian, I was responding to this part of your last post on the  successes 
& failures thread.
