germinating
This is a cut and paste. Hope it helps!
They say they obtain germination rates of plus 95 % for all varieties:
1. Use a place with a stable temperature of 20°C (70°F)
2. Use soil with a pH-value of ± 7.0. ( or germination soil mix from the gardening center)
3. Sow the seeds in a container about 5 mm (0.2 inches) deep.
4. 1 Seed per small container is easy for later moving to a larger container or ouside. Keep 5 cm (2 inches) distance between the seeds in larger containers.
5. After sowing press the earth lightly, this stimulates even sprouting.
6. Spray the soil lightly with water. The soil should not be too dry or too wet.
7. Cover the container with thin transparent plastic film to achieve an
optimal greenhouse effect.
8. After 1 to 10 days the seeds will have sprouted. Now remove the
plastic film.
9. Sprinkle the soil regularly with water, wait till the upper layer has driedout, and sprinkle again with water.
10. After 1 - 2 weeks the seedlings will be strong enough to put them in a larger container.
