Seedfork said:I did a test one year with no stratification and with cold moist stratification. It was several years ago, and I don't recall
much about the results, but I did start using cold moist stratification after that. So I must have seen enough different that it impressed me enough to change, and nearly all my seeds are evergreens.
Edited to add:
I do remember that my seeds were sprouting over a long spread out period of time, and with the cold moist stratification they cut that spread out time down quite a bit. I wanted my seed to all sprout pretty much at the same time.

That's it. The reason to do cold stratification.... uniform germination. I am doing something weird with one baggy now. In the frig at night; out in A/C in the day...like in real life. Cold at night; warm in the day.
