I think it was the medium I was growing the ventricosum seeds in........composted manure with peat moss. Works great for older plants but too much microflora for long seed germination. All the E. glaucum and M. velutina seeds were in peat discs, only a couple rotted out of the whole set. I might try E. ventricosum again but this time in peat discs.
