9b-10a climate | ~ 2 days a year of a few hours on -2 Celsius | 1400mm of rain

High altitude palms, ferns, cycadales, evergreen magnolias & quercus are my jam 

I can't help to wonder if sometimes I am crossing the fine line of sharing with generosity to feeding the dynamics of desire, ego and dependency. Or maybe there is no such thing

Guillermo, Sorry to say but there aren’t any palms sprouting in your photo.

What Jim said. A lot of if depends on what seeds they are, how rare they are, what they mean to you, etc etc but none of those are palms. 

 

How's your setup? Bottom heat? Are you putting a lid on that or something? It looks like you need some airflow through there cuz there's some funk going on that's probably going to kill any palms that did sprout in there.

What would I do is remove the seeds clean them and sow them again in some coco peat perlite mix, place them on a heat mat and wait!

For me fungus = failur. With the high humidity at my place. I once tried cleaning and fungicid but i heard it inhibitate germination. And they never sprouted.

Rgr, thanks for the heads up and all the intel it’s a mix of geonoma palm seeds and passiflora. It’s too early to tell they have only been there for 1.5 months. Only 2 passiflora have sprouted so far. I will go ahead clean and repot everything asap. They were all under a heat mat at 22C, first time this happens. I’ll keep score on the progress. Best, G

Geonoma would want at least 28 degrees Celsius, and try not to have a mix that is too wet just slightly moist squeeze a handful and if water drops come out it’s to wet, you learn the sound your after when you squeeze it and listen to that sound!
