Observation :

Reason :

5. Germinate Plants

To germinate seeds, wet a paper towel or coffee filter. Choose a towel that‘s strong when

wet. That type holds moisture longer and doesn‘t shed lint on seeds (lint can give mold a

place to grow). Coffee filters work well because seedling roots don‘t penetrate filter

paper, which makes it easy to shift germinated seeds to soil.

Place seeds inside the damp towel or filter, and slide it into a sandwich baggie. Don‘t seal

the baggie tight, because that can provide good conditions for mold to grow. Stash the

baggie in a warm spot (65-75°F)—a laundry room, southern window or sunroom.

Monitor the towel for moisture and the seeds for signs of mold. Mist the towel if it dries

out.

Seeds should germinate in a few days to a week. Once growth is visible, shift the seed to

moist soil. Place small seeds on top of soil without covering; bury other seeds to the

depth recommended on the seed packet. If the root grows into the towel, at planting time

cut the towel around the root and bury it with the root.
