theres no guaranteed way to have your seeds germinate.. just a suggestion, but the best thing you can do is the good old paper towel routine. Wet some paper towels down, put them on a plate or on something thats not very porous. place your seeds on the paper towel/tissue, place another damp/wet paper towel/tissue over the seeds and then put another plate over them, or something to keep ALL LIGHT AWAY FROM THE SEEDS. Whatever you do, make sure they are in the dark, youll have them sprouted before you know it. When waiting for sprouts, make sure that the paper towels are always moist, if those paper towels dry out and the seed is no longer moist, your plant is doomed, even if you do manage to get it to produce, it wont be what it could have been.

happy blazing fellow botanists :-)

also, make sure when you put them in your growing medium, please put them in a container that is big enough to handle the plant at full growth, or big enough so it will grow the the desired size without having to transplant again.. transplanting is bad news.. its always a pain in the ass and its easy to screw a plant right up. if your lookin for info on how to grow them from there, check out my other post

I personally (for 2 seeds) have take 3 paper towels... ripped em in half let water drip on the one sides so its moist but not dripping.... put the other one on top dripped more water so its all moist put it in a cup... added a few more drops (and i use faucet water...shhh) so its nice n moist, put another cup on top, and threw the cups in a rubbermaid for 2 days...
all sprouted

tdblue thats the only way to go. this year i've germinated over 25 seeds and everyone has sprouted! i fold over a couple paper towl put the seeds in a normal size zip and give a big blow of warm breath in the bag than close it. put it somewhere dark and room temperature and check a day or two maybe water but by the 2 day they are sprouted!

i don't mean to be a pessimist but if you got laid off today what are you gonna do for the next 3-4 months while the plants grow? I have 12 that are 23 days from seed and am between a rock and a hard place with my bills as well. anyhow i used the moist paper towel tech. with a plate and a bowl over and had 100% germination.
