Re: Soaking seeds getting moldy
I get that if I forget to change out my water daily. I would slosh them around in some very warm water 4-5 times. Drain water/refill/slosh etc.
I have actually had worse results with filed down seeds. I've found it's better to not file/chip the seed or do anything fancy. Just soak for 2-3 days changing water daily then letting them sprout in 100% peat moss the natural way unfiled with buttons still intact.
If you had a sterile lab and could do embryo rescue that would be a different story. But personally I have had way worse success with banana seeds when I mess with the seed. If you have fresh seeds and provide the correct conditions they will sprout and continue sprouting for over a year.
