I have 100 seeds planted ,they have been planted now for about 3 months and only one came up and that happened within the first 2 weeks of planting,,so I dont know maybe the rest are bad???I did the float test on them half sank and the other half floated,,thats what I do with all my palm seeds,but am not sure if you can do that with banana seeds to tell if their good or bad! soaked all the seeds for 2 days nicked half,and microwaved for 3 seconds the other half just trying to see different results,on what works best!!
