What to expect
Tips
Seeds require light to germinate - do not bury deeply. Press lightly into soil surface. Maintain high humidity with plastic cover. Avoid waterlogged conditions to prevent damping off. Fresh seed germinates more readily than older seed. Can take up to several months in some cases. Seedlings need bright light after germination.
