I though I would share how I stratify my sarracenia seeds.
Tools:
- Paper towels
- Distilled water
- Ziplock bag
- Permanent marker
Procedure
1. Wet a paper towel with distilled and wring it out until it is wet but not soggy.
2. Set out the seeds on the paper. Space them out in case some mold starts to grow. That way you may avoid it spreading to other seeds. 3. Fold the paper towel in half so that the seeds are covered. 4. Roll it up so that there is no air trapped inside. 5. Label the bag with the name of the seeds and the date that you started the process. 6. Put the towel in the bag and roll it up. Try to remove the air and seal the bag. 7. Put it in the refrigerator and set your alarm for 8 weeks. Fresher seeds could probably be okay with 6 weeks.
Once they come out, sow them on peat or chopped sphagnum and treat them as you would any other seeds.
Here is the result of this evening. Plan on seeing some of these in the seed bank.
