Natalie said:@sooby I didn't test anything. I just put them freshly harvested seeds in a cup over night, or maybe for two nights, and then I put them in the fridge dry.
Sorry, Natalie, I worded that badly, I didn't mean you did it deliberately as a test. Just that I thought you coincidentally did something similar to what Maurice had described, that is the seeds were refrigerated after harvest after drying for a couple of days or so. Then later on you added water to start them stratifying and some sprouted within a few days in the fridge. It would seem in response to the water because they didn't sprout before yet wouldn't have been totally dried down with only two days prior drying (unless they were not in an air-tight container in the fridge and dried out further in there). Just looking to learn something about daylily seed dormancy indirectly from your procedure.
