I'm in New Jersey USA. The seed was not prepared as that does not do anything (in my opinion) but I don't know what you mean, maybe soaking? What else would you do, maybe knick the outer shell? But this was very fresh seed, and I think that this is the only issue with banana seed propagation.

They were sown in Pro Mix PGX and put on a bottom heat that is set at 90 degrees. Sunny days would see temps in at least the 80s or higher in the greenhouse.

But yeah I have a ton of them. I was going to list them for sale on here but it says I need credits or something. I don't know if any nursery people read this though who would be interested in those quantities.
