I put ten recently purchased (from a very reputable store in Amsterdam) Blue Haze seeds in a lukewarm glass of water for a few days until they all sank, and then planted them in nice seed start mix and with a lovely warming pad...and only 4 germinated, and of those 4, one is a runt that I doubt will survive. So I waited a few more days, then I gently exhumed the seeds that weren't coming up- and they looked the same as they did when I planted them! So I plunked them back into the water and put it in a warm dark place- I guess if they sprout, yippee, and if they don't, I can keep my fingers crossed about the 3 strong babies I have.
This seems like a pretty low ratio of viable seeds- were they bad seeds, or was I a bad mother?
I am sad
