Thank you M'am! Your video came just when I needed it. I had trouble germinating my sweet pea ("Spencer mix" is the name of the variety) seeds. First they rotted and there was mold on the seeds after two weeks in wet soil. Next batch i soked in 1 % chlorite solution. No mold but no germination either. Now I will try this sandpaper thing and pre germinate the seeds before putting them in to the soil. Lets see..
Hello, you can also make scratch with nail file or just do a small cut in bark with sharp knife. Usually sprout do not have power to break this pea bark, this is main reason why it do not germinate. Good luck to you!
One more comment for you. If you see that peas stays slimy, this means seeds are old. But this method which I share will show you already after couple of day period if germination will come or not. 2-4 day period it will be clear they germinate or peas are old or really weak. Just keep them wet in all process.
I promised to report the sprouting.. now after two days only one seed is sprouting out of about 50. I purhased 100 grams with discount.. they must be old. But lets wait couple days more..
@@juha7830 Do not throw out, let's wait couple days more. Put them in some warm place, next to window in sunny side. And keep them wet, between gauze, but not like they stay in water, just some wet textile around. let me know result after 2 days more. :)
I've not seen this process before, very interesting, i didn't know they prefer lower acidity, will you do an update on the cottage renovation?
So close to 1k subs!!! ❤😀
