Калипсо, вот я нашла как семена проращивать, если ты еще не нашла:place the seeds about 1/2" or 3/4" apart or sow in individual pots. maybe best to plunge the growing pot in water or allow moist mix to draw water up from the bottom, then drain well. probably best if seed is in full contact with potting mix. don't cover with the mix, but yes it works well to cover the seed tray. Careful of any molds starting, remove any seeds with mold or spray to inhibit molds. can't remember how long to germination, may have been within 14 to 30 days.have started them in the fall and don't know how long the seed is viable.
