Sorry to hear it. It wasn’t without trying . Harry

I was a bit disappointed actually, they were a pacsoa purchase from palm and cycad society, one would at least think they were good to go! It may have been the germinaters fault!

Different seeds have different requirements , as I am learning. You have the set up to give them every chance of success , with your experience . Harry

I thought it may have been grower mistake, I get a batch of seeds that need cool temperatures to germinate, and i ask  the cold climate growers, you learn as you grow, licuala seeds like scarification, licuala triphylla love constant high temperatures, Howea not so around 22 degrees Celsius for those ones. It’s alll a learning curve and the great thing about this forum we all learn from other growers!

As I dip my toe into the germination pond I have relied on others here as well….like you . I was told not to heat the Decipiens seeds , just let them be . I am still waiting after over 2 months but that is normal according to Terry Sullivan . I got impatient so last weekend I did the baggie on top of the water heater trick with another batch to see if that will speed things up a bit . I have three different batches right now as well as many sown throughout the garden. Dave has given me a few different species of seeds as well , all in community pots in the garage . Harry

The real genius is in the collection of posts showing all of these seeds and the techniques used. 

Putting them all together required a list of URLs from a search and a merge button. 😄

Thanks for doing that greatly appreciated, I don’t even know what a URLs is let alone copy and paste. Cheers

See I learnt something today on palmtalk they don’t need heat, luckily the ones I put in were not to warm and I removed them from the heat. 
Thanks Harry
