This is the process I followed: Step 1: soak in 3% peroxide for 20 min to kill any germs and drain Step 2: using a clean general purpose utility blade cut the end off the seed until you see the whitish interior, but not too deep Step 3: soak in Miracle-Gro Bloom Booster mixed at 1.5 TBS per gallon for 24 hours Step 5: place in seed starter mix that has been moistened with Miracle-Gro Bloom Booster in a clear plastic cup Step 6: place in an opaque plastic bin with a lid on a window shelf to keep warm Step 7: check for moisture and growth in the morning and evening Step 8: when mix feels dry spray with Miracle-Gro Bloom Booster mixed at 1.5 TBS per gallon of water. (I mix the Miracle Gro in an empty milk jug, then pour into a spray bottle and give 1 or 2 sprays until it feels damp) I took the pictures this morning (6/4/2014) ( I know the blue peonies are not likely truly blue, but they are still peonies and at 99 cents for 20 seeds you can't beat it right?) |
