Default Re: Insights on seed germination.

JoeReal-I enjoyed your post. I have been thinking about trying something new to induce germination in dormant banana seeds. (A real pain to break sometimes.) Have you or anyone else tried using a bit of mashed banana when planting the seeds. It may just encourage fungal growth but I have noticed that when my velutina fruit fall and lay on the ground for a few days, the seeds in the fruit sprout much quicker than when they are cleaned and planted in planting mix.
