Need a little help with seed germination
I am thinking about trying to grow some bananas from seed again. Now the first time I tried it, it didn’t work. I used salt peter in the water and soaked it for about 3 days. I then planted them in potting mix. I then put the containers right out on the deck in the summer sun. None of them ever grew.
 So what is the trick to doing it right? Do I have to use a heat mat? Any advice?! Thanks so much in advance for any help!

Re: Need a little help with seed germination
Fresh seeds solves most problems. Normal potting mix, some heat and you can cover pots with transparent plastic bags to keep humidity.
