Instructions:
We recommend using the following to sow the seeds:
- Planter with Humidity Dome
- Soil Pods
- Liquid Fertilizer
Store these seeds in a cool, dry place if not planting right away. It is recommend to plant them right away, the longer they are stored, the lower the germination rates will be.
These are some of the most difficult seeds to germinate, so a good setup with a heat mat, greenhouse and grow lights is recommended to maintain the proper humidity and temperature.
