9 November 2017 Germination (Method) Posted on November 9, 2017 by Durgan http://durgan.org/2017/November%202017/9%20November%202017%20Germination/HTML/ This is my standard method of germinating seeds. Dampen a paper towel and place the seeds between the folds. These sprouted in three days (depends upon the seeds), in the dark, and temperature ~72F. Immediately after emerging from the soil place in bright light. For the initial growing a LED lamp is used with a five gallon pail. Sunlight is used when available.
