GROWING INSTRUCTIONS

For best results, sow seeds outdoors in Spring. If starting indoors...

SEED PRETREATMENT: Soak seeds in water for 24-48 hours, replace water after 24 hours. Mix seeds with a moistened grow medium equal to 3-4 times seed volume. Place in a plastic bag, covered tray/cells or container. 

STRATIFICATION: Start 120 days warm/moist (20°C), the top of your fridge is a good spot for this. Monitor for mold. Next, 90 days cold/moist (5°C), in your fridge is a good spot for this. Inspect periodically for even moisture and germination. 

POST-STRATIFICATION: Sow stratified seeds 1/4” deep. Alternating soil temperatures during the day (27°C) and night (15°C) can aid germination. Water evenly and regularly.

GERMINATION: When all previously mentioned requirements are fulfilled, germination generally occurs in 30-60 days.
