Tonny, that question belongs into your territory.

While we wait for Tonny.....
Mine often take up to a month to germinate unless I cheat and use GA.The warmer the weather the faster they germinate.
Soaking overnight helps.
If you need more seed,email your address.

I had very quick germination last year, sprouting them in baggies with damp paper towels.

Do mine on bottom heat and they sprout quickly.After all these plants originated in the desert southwest for the most part.

Oh shoot, Kyle, you just have a couple of bright green thumbs. :-) I had no trouble with double purple, double yellow, double white, and they were old seed. My new seed, has not sprouted one seed yet. I have the new seeds on bottom heat at 78-80 degrees. Sure made my sang seeds pop though.

I soak Datura seeds overnight, plant and keep warm.I've had excellant results this way. The warmth is an important factor to them germinating.
