ShawnSteve On March 3, 2022 Seeds germinated
Extremely tiny.
ShawnSteve On February 16, 2022 Miscellaneous Event
To "start out" from beginning, I'd "soaked" long fiber moss, with collected rainwater, inside of the provided cup, with a lid. Then microwaved for 3 minutes, to get the adequately, & thoroughly "moistened" growing medium "steaming hot".
(Waited, until adequately cooled, prior to firmly pressing down the fiber moss, until long fiber growing medium was nearly completely, a "flat" surface.

Then sown very tiny seeds, held in palm of my hand, (provided in rather small vial.)
To make it much more easily to distribute seeds evenly, across the surface. Closed the lid, & placed in area to provide exposure to direct sunlight, for germination to occur.
