like a drinking glass that holds water with no holes in it for drainage,set out in the sun in a oven.loose the glass,put in bright location not direct sun for starters.
Listen to Unmeg he knows his shit...
Personally I have never done the Paper/Cup geminating trick.
I just put my seeds 5mm below the suface in egg cups full of mushroom compost.
and they pop up like there on steroids..
If your doing out door I cannot reccomend Mushroom compst enough.
Not Magic Mushys Just Normal Mushroom compost.IMO.the best seedling starter ever/:D
where can i get it?
you should b able to get mushroom compost from your local nurery. or the local mushroom farm.As far as your question i dont think u have much chance of them serviveing if they dont cook they will probly falll over from the stress of being in a nice and very humid enviroment strait in to a very dry one.
well its on its 3rd day.. i'll go look for that mushroom compost.. what if i poke holes in the plastic wrap?
that will help .You wont to let it adjust to the outside enviroment as slowly as possible.If the seed has already sprouted put a couple of holes in then a few more the next day and so on .Adjust it to the natural enviroment over about 1 week...hope this helps..... :cool:
what would help is if i could get my hands on some mushroom compost.. home depot doesnt sell it..
