Thanks guys for your responses.

Dean-Oh 3 or 4 months ago I think I planted the first seeds. Probably back in late Oct. Did you do anything special?

Brian-Thanks I'll try that. In the past I use to use sandpaper and rough up the coat before soaking. I had a lot of luck with that. I got away from that recently for some reason, and have not had as much luck with germination. Do you just rough up the outside with sandpaper/file, or do you actually nick the coat until you see the white inside?
