OK so for all the things I didn't do right last year this was one of them! About a month ago I test germinated five from my 379LB Swearingen 2011 and went 5 for 5 after 96 hours. Those were planted directly into seed starting mix (80 degrees) after filing.
This is a new method for me and I'm sure this will cut down on the length of time it takes to germinate. The air temp inside the box is 77deg and inside the paper towel (moistened) is 85 degrees. Seeds were filed this time as well, in addition to soaking them for two hours in a hydrogen peroxide solution. I'll put money they sprout in 48 hours....(crossing fingers)
