Re: Seed Germinating

Hi,
 
Here is a method I found that looks good, I will try it next season (along with a few other, just in case):
  1. Place seeds (2 in. apart) between two paper towels
  2. Roll the towels with the seeds inside (not to tight).
  3. Place the roll in a plastic bag and humidify (1 spoonful of lukewarm water).
  4. Close bag and keep in a warm place (suggested: on top of fridge).
  5. Watch for change in seeds.
  6. As soon as the roots starts to show, remove and plant (inside or out if the temp is right).

Good Luck

PS. You're lucky I still have to wait a few months!!!
