Tim, thanks for the compliment. I'm glad you liked the article.

A desk lamp over the seeds at night will give them some extra light and heat if you can do that. I used to put my seeds on my gas stove that was warm from the two pilot lights at night with a desk lamp over them, and then I would put them outside during the day.

Don't give up with those seeds. They can take several weeks or even months to sprout, and they won't all sprout at the same time. Let them stay on the dry side until you see some evidence of sprouting. It is not uncommon to lose a few so don't worry if some rot.
