STARTING FLOWER SEEDS
BY BESSIE |. PUTNAM.

Almost all flower seeds germinate
more quickly If soaked in warm water
for a few hours before planting. In
some instances this is almost a neces
sity.
The advantage of treating sweet
peas this way is most marked
Cypress vines will stand quite warm
water poured over the seeds 12 hours
before planting.
Gamma seeds and those of the other
large, hard-shelled sorts, sometimes
require careful filing to break the
tough, outer cover, but extreme care
must be taken not to injure the germ.
The finer greenhouse seeds should
be merely sprinkled on the surface OF
very fine soil and kept continually
moist. During termination glass
should be kept over the pots. After
the plants have come this should be
removed to admit air.
The sowing of fern spores on
brick, covered with just a sprinkling
OF earth, is an interesting study to the
nature lover the necessary water be-
ing supplied by keeping the brick in a
dish of water.
Extreme care must be taken Of the
tiny seedlings, for if allowed to get
dry they will almost surely die and
If kept too moist they incline to
damp off,
Most of the greenhouse plants and
similar delicate ones are scarcely
profitable for the amateur to raise,
save as a source of experimental
study, though geraniums and num-
Der of the larger seeds are as easily
managed as pansy or an astor and
one can get good variety at a small
cost.
AS rule the seed should be plant
ed twice its own depth, and in the
case of small seeds it is essential to
have the ground finely pulverized.
