hi joyce, i don't know what i can tell you since i grow everything indoors in a non-AC appartment in the jungle of new york. because Sinningia and gesneriad seed is so small, it can be frustrating to work with. i sow a small portion in a small 2" pot and keep it enclosed in an iced-coffee plastic cup. if you have too much moss growing over, it's obviously a humidity issue? in the wild, we have seen many seedlings growing on moss-covered rocks, so they obviously can live together... i was wondering if people have had some success or failure with the Sinningia seed i have sent dell. mostly, seed can be kept viable for many years in the fridge, and some of the seed i sent him is a bit old. just wondering if anyone has had no luck whatsoever. for those interested, the Gesneriad Society just held its convention and there's a slide show at this website: http://gesneriads.ca/GS2008/ShowGallery.htm as you know, many genera in the family are tuberous/rhizomatous. ========= tsuh yang --- On Fri, 7/4/08, pbs-request@lists.ibiblio.org <pbs-request@lists.ibiblio.org> wrote: > May I know the technique you use to sow sinningia seed > and avoid moss grow over.
