I soaked 50 Abyssinian seeds a week. 6 have sprouted, with the first being a foot tall now and they were in the ground about 2 weeks before they started coming up.

I read where sometimes it can take up to a year for germination, so I'll leave the rest for quite a time i guess. I'm in zone 7 and first frost is usually around November 5 about 3 months from now. I guess it's better to stick these that didn't sprout in the greenhouse before frost or would you leave them outdoors?

Please advise!
