I'm Blomma's customer who started adding ice to the iris soaking water. In addition to changing the water twice a day for 3 weeks and adding ice to the water, I am going to try soaking and icing for an extra week. All the seeds that sprouted tiny roots did
so at the end of the 3 weeks. This batch is now at 23 days and this morning I had 4 more sprout.
So far I have 25 planted. It takes 10 days to 2 weeks for the little seedlings to pop up. However that is 25 out of 225 seeds. Yes, I actually counted them. I'll let you know what happens to the rest at the end of the 4 weeks.

1. & 2. sprouted seeds
3. & 4. iris seedlings one week old
