Bottom heat is about 35°C - 95°F. Half of the seeds are sandpaper scarified. (the one germinated was not) |

That old chestnut. To scarify or not to scarify.

That's awesome! Somebody told me banana seeds never grow true to species - each seed-grown plant is different. Is that true?

Re: Germination - Ensete Glaucum
i have mine in dowe egberts coffee jars sitting on top of radiator. water changed daily.
airing cupboard useless since combi boiler went in attic. i'm also trying post soak seeds in a ziplock bag with usual damp perlite\vermiculite in a thermos flask of water at 35degs. might work instead of propagator and cheaper... too early to know results yet. |
