What's germinating this week and gibberillin

I have some seeds of Strumaria tenella from BX 299 germinating happily. I was worried that they would dry up before they could germinate so I gave them a spritz of MegaGro (.001% Potassium gibberellate)

Thanks, Lee.  That's extremely useful.  And congratulations! 

I did the refrigeration-in-bag technique from the cold-winter Calochortus 
species I received (C. lyallii, etc).  They've been in the fridge for eight 
weeks.  The seeds plumped up nicely, but so far there aren't roots from any 
of them.  At some point I presume I should go ahead and pot them up even if 
they haven't sprouted.  Does anyone have suggestions? 

Thanks, 

Mike
