I must comiserate with you Tony I had a poor year for sprouting but in hind site it was most likly every think about the excessive unrelenting heat here in TX. In the last 4 weeks I have managed to germinating about 70%. The big change is the weather, no longer 100+ through the day with a low of 80 overnight.
I think next year if I attemp to germinate in the hot months I will chill the seeds in a ziplock bag with a damp piece of paper towel included and leave them in the crisper for 2 weeks before soaking and planting.
Here is a pick of brugs where I gave up on them and used the cup to germinate Day lillies in and look brugs started to appear.
