Banana Seed Germination Forum As one of the toughest seeds in the plant kingdom to figure out the keys to germination success with, this is a forum with banana seed germination tips. Please entitle posts like "Musa balbisiana," or "Musa cheesmani," etc. People would then post a reply under that heading, sharing their germination successes (and failures), what materials and methods they used, germination percentage, etc. |

![]() Hi saltymouse,
Welcome to the forum, I'm not sure that's germinating but keep it up, as you probably know musa seeds are very hard to get going, what variety have you got there? |
