Comments: | Sow outside in mid Summer to allow the seed to get the warm stratification then the seed will over-winter to get the cold stratification. Root develops in warm stratification; then the seed requires chilling for the shoot to develop. Do not excessively dry the seed (below 5-6%). Epicotyl dormancy. You can dry seed to 10% moisture level with no damage to germination. |
