OK>>>> Seeds are ready on the velutina!!! - Page 9

Maggidew · 02-26-2008, 09:45 AM

Randy, sorry I haven't checked in for a while. The seeds you sent are doing well, the M. velutina are starting to sprout, actually I think the first one popped up a month ago. I'll get some pics after the batteries charge :~)

Hey Randy,

I checked on my seeds today, and I am very happy to report that I have 2 sprouts. These were sown in November. Hopefully, the others are not to far behind. I will post pictures soon.

Hey Randy! My seeds are undergoing a different experiment than when I started. My heating pad went south when I plugged it in so they are doing the normal warm/cool variance naturally, outside. Nothing happening so far (I'm not surprised), but, my hopes are high for later this spring.

Thanks again, and I'll keep you updated...

Hi Randy

My seeds still havent germinated.

I check them everyday! Iam thinking about sterilizing some soil in the oven or microwave to see if that will make a difference. Im looking forward to springs warmth, as iam sure that will make a difference too. I'll keep reporting periodically. MG

My first seedling died, I think from getting a little dry. I have another one in the tray though.
