Here's proof. Okay, so I only planted them the 1st. I'm an optimist!!!
who says we can't grow sanguinea?
You can do it,I have confidence in you!!!just don't let my peacocks near them,that's what happen to all mine "SNIP"
oh no! maybe you can keep one inside. I will probably have to trade this off when they get bigger, seedlings are easy:)
Awwww... Little baby sanguineas. I ordered some sanguinea seeds from Valley Grow. I'm bound and determined to have one. I hope a have the good germination you've had.

Good luck with them tiG. I know you'll be able to grow them.

tiG,
they are so cute. :)
Hey tiG - did you soak those seeds before you planted them? I just got mine in the mail today. I noticed they're quite different from other brug seeds. I'm positive now that the seeds I planted last winter were not sanguinea. I can tell just by lookin at them.
I soaked them for 48 hours. I did peel these after soaking, they aren't as fresh as Eric's. Only a couple of empty seed pods. I did just peel the outer layers, not all the way down to the bean.
The ones I got from valleygrow look different. They almost look like segments to an orange. They don't have the brown husk-ish stuff on them. Is that how yours were?
mine look like that too. After you soak them you'll see that you can take a layer or two off without hurting them. Some I did peel to the bean, but not if they seemed like they wanted to fight:) Almost 100% germination on those after 9 days and the mixed hybrids are coming up too.
Checked my journal and I only soaked these 24 hours.

I checked your journal out too. Quite a collection you've got going! What are you gonna do when all those seedlings get big?? -LOL- I'll be in the same boat. I'm gonna hold off on starting the seeds until after Christmas when I can set my lights up.
I'm gonna trade them!!! :) Except for some of the aureas, I'm going to hybridize them. I wanted to wait on the brug seeds, but they do best as fresh as possible, so I went ahead and started them now. I need to get some bt for gnats, so I'm armed if and when they start.
I've already got gnats. I bought some of those mosquito dunks. I've toss one in my watering can for a few minutes before I water. It seems to be helping - I'm just trying to keep from drowding my plants.
for your inside plants? it works on fungas gnats? might can pick some up on a summer clearance.
Yes - they're made from BT and kill mosquito larvae. It's cheaper than the fancy solutions they sell. I had a terrible time with gnats last year. I hoping to nip them in the bud this year... so to speak.

got some growing about the same size. I am thinking they should do good out side until spring and maybe will have to bring them in and keep the a/c on to make them think there in the mountains......lol
my thoughts exactly!!!!
