Kim,
There are alot of different ways to start a seed....some high tech, some
not. I am assuming that your seeds are viable. Get sterilized seed starting
mix....not potting soil. Put the seeds in 4 or 5 " plastic pots. Don't
overwater the seed starting mix...just damp. Put the pots in a place that has
a constant 85 to 90 degrees....confirm this by making up an extra pot with a
thermometer in it. If the soil temp is 80 to 85 degrees, they will come up in
about 4 days or so. Don't use old seeds....use some from a fruit from
lastyear....they will have maximum viability. They will come up, if you
follow this.
