But if you have some old or unknown seeds, and you have some to spare for the experiment, that is a good way to figure out germination. Usually, I seed my own seeds in soil, and not worry about germination rate. It does backfire at times, as I have too many plants.Florida Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05900944045481583806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5167042266458372170.post-65451915732655531662012-01-19T12:52:51.237-05:002012-01-19T12:52:51.237-05:00Great experiment!

I wonder if it would be a good idea to germinate any seeds you wanted to plant this way before planting them out in the garden or small pots. <br /><br />That way you wouldn't have to worry about poor germination of a crop and wasted time planting the seeds in the soil first. I will try this and see what happens. Thanks for the idea.Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15889936294923582739noreply@blogger.com
