If i go by this the most fruitful days are the 9th, and 10th. So start germination on the 5th-6th for planting on the 9th, 10th

Is that correct?

On germination put the seeds in the fridge, take them out out put them in a moist paper towel between a couple plastic picnic plates. Apply heat with either a heating pad or a heat mat and put a towel over it to hold the heat in and a towel under to keep them from burning. For non coated beans add some karma micro nutrients to help germination.

I have had some trouble getting it right. i don't think i was germinating wrong i think it was my moon timing. only the last couple time i had trouble, I've always used this method for germination and usually got all beans popped in three days.

Thanks for helping me check myself and do it right, my head has been hurting for awhile not thinking totally clear. So i know to ask and verify. :comfort:

:thank you:

the date changes every month....

Just go to your local store and buy a copy of the 2011 farmers almanac.


NO nutes on seeds or seedlings... none. They have all the 'food' they need for the first two weeks or so of life within the seed.

idk why your seeds would be in the fridge, but be sure to soak them overnight. I use ziploc bags with moist paper towels inside.

Forget the calender. Put the seeds in a warm moist white folded wash rag(what I use) or paper towel. Put that in a plastic bowel with lid. I use a zip loc bowel with lid or a sandwich bag works. Then I put mine on the warm spot on my hot water heater. It's that simple. Check this out. https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=112662
