I have had the best luck to soak seeds overnight in hand hot water. Then put them in a damp kitchen towel folded over, and placed in a small plastic bag. I place the bag in the fridge for a minimum of 3 weeks for stratification. After 3 weeks, (6 weeks for hardy perennials) I take the bag and place it in room temp until sprouted. I check on the seeds every 3 days and plant those that have sprouted. I use the small craft plastic bags available in Walmart. They are just large enough to hold one folded seed package. If youi have several, stick the bags in a bowl, or plastic container that salads come in. This is the only method I use now to start seeds with. Below are Columbine seeds just prior to pottine up. |
