tsuh yang,

I sow them in either the fall (October) or spring (April/May), generally as
soon as I get them. I get better germination with bottom heat. The seedling
mix I use is a mixture of coir, granite sand and pumice. I start them in a wet
mix in plastic bags under lights. I open the bags when I see some
germination, and remove them a few days later. I keep them fairly wet for the first
couple of months. They seem to prefer some warmth during this period.

Generally, I get either very good germination or none at all.
