Lucy, I was successful with pollenizing this season, and have many dried and labeled seeds to start.
I planted a few right away in pots, just to see if I could get early starts. Nothing yet.
The rest of the seeds will go through the process described by Paul - soaking, changing the
water daily, dumping them on paper towels folded in a packet, moistened, and putting the packet
into a square of aluminum foil, labeling it, and putting it all in a sealable plastic bag and storing it into the vegetable
keeper. Then checking after 6 or 8 weeks to see if anything is germinating. Then potting some up, warming them up,etc. Transplanting
in March into individual pots, etc. Lining them out in May.
California weather may dictate some changes in the procedures, perhaps.

I think it's enough to keep me busy! Hilarious!

Bravo to John and his workability!
