Default Re: Advice on my seeds please

Floating is usually a bad sign, and I bet it's the mouldy one. So I would throw that one away.

Musa seeds usually need cooler temperatures at night and warmer tempertaures during the day. You'd be surprised how warm it gets under glass in the sunshine even in our climate.

You'd be lucky to get anything to germinate using two seeds. I plant hundreds and sometimes get nothing. If you're serious you need at least 50 in order to get an up to 5% germination rate. Again if you're lucky.

Have a look through the seed germination section.

Welcome btw
