I have 6 cups of seeds of different crosses. I think most of the cups have 5 or 6 seeds in them. I must admit I was surprised to see one cup with 83% germination, 1 cups with 16% germination, and the other 4 cups with 0% germination at this point.

Now does drying seeds have any correlation to this? The other cups of seeds had been drying for a few days. I planted the CCC03 x Big Snowbird seeds without letting them dry for a couple of days because the 1 seed had already germinated. Could planting them right away have anything to do with quick germination? If the seed coat is not completely hardened, could that cause quicker germination?
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters, compared to what lies within us.
