| MrsBinWY | On May 11, 2022 | Seeds germinated On 5-11-2022, observed 2 seedlings. 3rd one up on 5-16-22. |
| MrsBinWY | On September 18, 2021 | Seeds sown On 9-18-2021, 4 fresh seeds in a #1 pot in a plastic bag on top of the aquarium, ~77-78 degrees bottom heat but much cooler air temp. Plan to fridge on 12-18-21. Fridged 12-18-2021. Unfridged on 3-27-2022, watered and placed on back patio. Potting media was pretty dry. |
| MrsBinWY | On December 5, 2017 | Seeds germinated Noticed 1 seed had struck root. Potted it up and put it in the garden hoop. (Think that was a bad idea, as the temps plummeted. Next time, put in the fridge instead if the seeds haven't been outside.) |
| MrsBinWY | On September 17, 2017 | Seeds sown 4 seeds plus 1 that probably isn't good. Sterilized with H2O2 solution. Baggie and moist potting mix on top of fridge. |
