Hi Everyone! I haven't been on here in a few months, and haven't started my Daylily seeds either. I really need to get that done!

I've been reading all the various methods of starting the seeds, and I want to try the Deno method. Everything I've read though says to soak them in water overnight and then put them in the fridge. Well, after harvesting them last year, I dried them and then put them in the fridge. So, they have been in there since about the end of September and October.

My question is, do I need to put them back in the fridge after soaking overnight, since they have already been chilling? I've got room to just soak them and stick them in pots outside, but I'd rather try to get some little roots growing first so that I don't waste the room of putting them in a pot if they aren't going to grow. I'm also getting a late start, thanks to a busy winter, and I just didn't want to grow them under lights again.

Any suggestions would be most appreciated! And if I can just find some patience for my seedlings from 2 years ago to bloom, I'd be a lot better off!
