Extra Germinated Seeds (Serenoa repens "Silver")

I have some extra germinated Serenoa repens "Silver" seeds to give away.  At least two seeds showing germination through the baggie (probably more to come).  These were personally sourced from a palm growing in Naples, Florida over Christmas.  I am willing to ship for free to the lower 48; just agree to give them a good home.  PM me if interested (first come, first serve).

    I have another batch available (from the same palm; just started germinating them later).  At least three seeds showing germination through the baggie (probably more to come).  As always, I am willing to ship for free to the lower 48; just agree to give them a good home.  PM me if interested (first come, first serve).

    Do you have any (ungerminated) seeds left?  I just nuked a bunch of my Serenoa seedlings, the heat mat dried the bottom of the soil out and the radicles are all shriveled up... I'm done putting opaque containers on the heat mat.  Anyway if you have any seeds left I'd gladly buy them.  Guess I'm at my max DM limit for the day.

    If the radicle is severed in half can the seedling still make it or will it die? Sorry jw cause I nicked a medjool root today after going through a bucket of seeds and it happened to be a crescent shaped one, probably was a female..

    Sorry for the late response...I just saw this.  I have may have a seedling or two I can spare (2 or 3 strap leaves)...if you still need some.

    Probably...especially if it is a new seedling.  The good news: Medjools are easy to come by (I literally just ate one), and easy to germinate as well.

    No problem, I forgot to tag you so it would notify you.  So that's my fault.  If you don't have many left, don't worry about it.  I appreciate the reply though.
