Grogu! One week in water germination and I have almost 100% germination. Now, as long as I don't kill them transferring them to the pot, I'll be good.

D nidiformis sprouts but nothing with spat Tamlin..the first batch I had in water for over a week and nothing for more than a month now so I dumped the rest of the pack in the container lol..the nidiformis sprouted even faster than the big pink x self
EDIT
I spoke too soon I actually have my first spat tamlin sprout..

To add to the list of stuff that germinated: D. capensis"Montagu Pass" and D. spatulata "Beenak Vic, Aus." both have a lot of successful sprouts for me.

D. intermedia roraina and D.esmeraldae cerro do araca had good germination.

This is a filiformis that I have grown from seedbank seed. It is just under a year old.

No luck with:
S. Ras OP
Sarr 002) Doreens colossus x flava super veins

Did anyone else get these to germinate? It's been a couple months, but I might give them a little longer.

How long did you have them in stratification and how long has it been since they have been sown. Sarr002 may be pretty old but RAS OP should be fresh.

4 weeks stratification, 8 weeks since they have been sown. In hindsight, I should have left them in the fridge longer. I usually stratify sarr seeds for 2-3 months, but I got impatient this time.

Sounds like they have a meeting with the outdoors this winter.

I tried Sarr 002 last year with no luck.
However, I did fridge strat Ras OP seeds for 6 weeks at 38 degrees F, sown two weeks ago, and noticed a few sprouts a couple days ago. This is the first success for Sarr seeds that I have stratified myself.

Is there any germination for D. Nidiformis?
I've tried with no luck. Also, has a new batch arrived?

I've had luck with germination then, when the seedlings were almost established, I dropped the entire pot.

Interesting, how long ago was this? I tried and the whole pot got covered in algae within 2 months.

An update on germination:

Still stratifying Sarr 'Lynda Butt' OP

Tons of germination with FTS OP, along with some amazing maroon color inside the traps

The 10 G17 OP seeds got flooded with Distilled water by my clumsy hands, so a 0% chance I'll get anything from that

Drosera Binata Var. Multifida was a failure(no germination after 6 weeks of sowing)

Drosera Spatulata 'Fraser Island' took a while but I still got close to 100 percent germination

Mixed Capes were a failure, got 1 or 2 sprouts about 2 months later but I doubt those were Capes, probably just some other seeds that got mixed in.

EDIT: Forgot to add D. (Hercules x Self) x Big pink: Lotsa germination, awesome color.

I totally agree with you. Nothing yet.
