Here are my seedllings growing in 6-packs and 3" pots that have only been washed and airdried. No sterilization and no damping off....ever!

1] Daylilies in 6-packs March 23, 2013 and not one died from dampingoff.
2] Closeup
3] Daylilies in 3" pots that have not been sterilized and not one.
4] 156 Daylily seedlings in the nursery on May 2012
5] Dayliliy seeds sprouting with Deno method just prior to planting in 6-pack. This may be the reason why no damping off.
