Hi All
I have 200 Sikkimensis seeds ready to go. I was thinking of experimenting with a few variables and would like some input. the results should give some good pointers for the future. I have a propagator with pretty accurature day/night temp control. So I was going to set that to 35C(95F)Day/10-12C(50-54F)night
8hrs day/ 16hrs night. Planting in a good seed compost mixed with 15% vermiculite (to improve drainage) and a couple of scoops of slow release fertilizer. seeds to be placed in clear tupperware containers.

The variables I was thinking of trying are:-

1/ soaked in warm water for 24 hrs

2/ soaked in GA3 for 24 hrs

3/ scarified with a scalpel (to just expose seed) then soaked in warm water for 24 hrs

4/ scarified with a scalpel (to just expose seed) then soaked in GA3 for 24 hrs

Anyone got any thoughts on other variables to try or alternative suggestions for planting medium or temp regime. All Input welcome, but don't take too long as I'm dying to get them in!!!

thanks
Kev
