Hi Everyone,

Hope everyones seeds have come up that they have started. As for me all of mine have except for a 1575 Stevens which I was really excited to get from the man himself, Chris. I filed and soaked it then placed it in its pot, but after 4 days there was no sign of a root so I clipped a tiny bit of the seed coat away. When I looked closer the plant was in there it just has not started to grow even though I keep it at 85-92 degrees. I have 1/4 of the seed coat off now and I put it in a wet papper towel/ with a plastic bag.

What else can I do to save it? Really want to grow this seed BAD!

Thanks,
Martin

Bad news, checked the seed again and looked closer and it smelled very bad. Turns out it rotted. Reallly sorry about that Chris, I was really, really looking foward to growing that 1575.

Thanks for the chance though,

Martin

could have rotted because your pot was way to wet?

Tried to keep it moist like you and Ron always say Pap. I use the same method as you guys but I guess I'm still trying to perfect it.
