Germination Guide

  • Rub off the "hairy" coat of the seeds as much as possible using a nail file or similar
  • Soak the seeds in a cup warm water. Keep the cup in a warm pace  eg on a radiator or in airing cupboard etc.
  • Remove any further loose material
  • Wash in clean water
  • Prepare a compost mix - Ideally a mix of  50% regular compost, 50% vermiculite (which I sell in the Accessories section of my eBay shop)
  • Place mix in suitable bowl and microwave on full power for 2 minutes to kill and fungi/bacteria
  • All soil mix to cool naturally
  • Place mix into clean seed trays or pots
  • Plant seeds so that the pointy top is just visible out the top of the compost mix
  • Humidify the soil but do not over water to prevent mould. 
  • Keep warm in a warm place 20-29c in a light place but out of direct sunlight.
  • Germination will take place in 3-6 weeks
TOP TIP! Don't use all your seeds in the same pot just in case rot sets in.
