Sometimes seeds are old and take a while. I've noticed that when I soak my seeds they pop quickly. I let them go for a little while before I transplant them. I let them get a couple inches tall. I sometimes use 100% perlite when I don't want the mix to be too wet. Using the method with just perlite is the most failsafe way that i've had.
lmdesade Reviewed by lmdesade on . Which Method to use? Hey! Having got my seeds, which method should I use to germinate them? I know the wet paper towel method is popular but I also saw another one that tells you to put the seed under water until the little shoot comes out- at which point you just put it in the soil. The second method seems easier because there is no chance of the seed drying out, but which do you use/recommend? Thanks, Rating: 5
