its been 10 days
YES, don't touch them!!! I have had seeds planted for 8 weeks and when I dug them up and tried to peel them, they were sprouted inside and I think I killed them. 2 to 4 weeks is good germination and a lot depends on freshness and species/variety
8 weeks? my god, this is more painful than waiting for an income tax check, lol
i soaked and peeled before i planted them. i think the packet said its a double variety. when i peeled them the seeds themselves were almost the size of sunflower kernals, maybe a little bigger.
thanks cala,

Jen,
I too have had seeds planted since early December and still no sign of life....it seems the latest ones I planted are now popping up.
Jen ,most of the ones I've started,germinated within a month,It just feels like a year!
Yeah.. and how long should I soak the brug seeds?? over night or what.. into luke water??? Let me know asap...
14 days ago I sowed loads of Brugseeds ... none came up yet and even if it is only 14 dys it feels like forever ... guess, MsJen, we just have to arm with more patience, but several times a day I think I will go and lift up some seeds to see, how they are doing ... *lol* dangerous thoughts *lol*
I soaked mine in luke water from late evening to first thing in the next morning, but I think the water went colder during night.
Jen, the white pearl x big from Monika will germinate in 2-6 weeks. I have 5 week old plants that are getting quite large and some still germinating. They were all planted at the same time. Leave them alone. These are wonderful seeds, great germination rate so be patient. LOL. Now the habanera x charming haven't germinated for me yet. Either have the arborea from Monika. I don't know how long they will take, I look 10x a day. But Brugman says some seeds can take up to a year to germinate. I think this addiction is teaching us patience.
leave it to a plant to teach me something ive been trying to learn for 33 years.
