I have sprouts on my return from holidays.
They were sown April 19 and two pots into frig.
One had GA3 and the other none.
One pot was room temp and one into freezer.
All have at least one sprout,but the frig ones have several.

I had given up hope that the first seeds I received from Canada in January 2013 would germinate but a few seeds sprouted around New Year, and then I received some more seeds from Jonna in Belgium. I also received seeds from from another person, so all of a sudden I had lots.

I kept the seeds moist in the fridge for a couple of months and they sprouted very well.

I have kept the seedlings in my living room window and put them outside a few times when the weather was warm. I still have not transplanted them, I think I will do that late this fall. I will keep them in a cool greenhouse during the winter and put them outside late next spring. Green Grin!

I hope your seedlings are doing well too. nodding

I think if I had true seedlings--they have died off in the heat !
I shall order more seeds and try again.

I never notice any seeds on my tree but I'll look this fall. I did find one self sown last year. I should check on it and see if it survived.
