Default Re: What seeds have germinated for you?

In what medium do you guys sow in?

Tropicallvr, I'm surprised you went away from using peat moss in favor of coco peat. With all the tests I've done (not with banana seeds though) with coco peat, the germination rates were very high but later on all the seedlings died from damping off. I went back to using Sphagnum moss peat. It somehow slows the development of fungi/bacteria.

The tests I performed with adult plants (also no bananas) with coco peat gave the same good results as with using Shagnum moss peat.

Gabe15, is that living Sphanum moss that you're using or Sphagnum moss peat ?
