I like this man talking, never waste time.

[@AlbertNguyen-b1j]

Is there anywhere I can look up this method in which your Ontario Rock Garden seeds were codified? I'd like to use it to codify my collection of seeds and in my spreadsheet for future use.

You said you substitute peat moss for the paper towel in your baggy method if the seed is too big. What is the diameter of the smallest seed you would use the peat moss for? Thank you

[@seanryan3359]

Thank you for this video, do you ever soak seed with anything else besides water? thanks your time...

[@Gardenfundamentals1]

Not unless the suggested germination process calls for it - and that is rare. I do use GA3 for some seed. Have tried peroxide but I don't think I have seen it work.

[@judysmith9642]

@@Gardenfundamentals1 about peroxide.......have you ever considered spraying a dilution of peroxide WITH water on the paper towel before putting the seeds into the plastic, labeled plastic bag? Just asking.....I am REALLY enjoying your videos...

[@Melissa54321]

Great video! You are right it definitely is Christmas when opening up that kind of mail!

Can you please give the list of vegetable seeds which may show dormancy

[@Gardenfundamentals1]

All seeds have some kind of dormancy. Most vegetable seed has simple dormancy and can be sprouted warm.
