Hi there Jane,
Rather than germinating them as
David apparently does, in moist paper towels or some such, I think it's
better to plant them in a seed pot right away, because, as he says, the
seedling stems are quite fragile.
I should clarify that, I follow Norm Deno's general rules, but instead of
using his paper towels, I put the seeds into a plastic bag containing damp
perlite. I find that with the towels, seeds tend to root into the paper,
whereas with the perlite there is no problem, it just sticks to the roots.
Best regards,
David Victor
