Seed Starting

Today kicks officially kicks off the 2010 season. I'm trying two
different seed starting methods with these seeds: the first method is
to completely chip away the seed covering and then soak the sees for
24 hours. The second method takes a seed and gently file (or
sandpaper) the edges of the covering. This helps the moisture seep
into the seed and also assists the first leaves from breaking free of
the seed coating.

Three of five are in the dirt, warmed to a toasty 80 degrees! Good luck.

  1. Very interesting. It'll be fun to see which seed works better.
