Did you cover the pot with anything, and did it 'stay' really humid and warm in the pot for the one year period, or did you leave the pot open and water often? Did you keep the pot in a greenhouse, or indoors in a nice warm spot? I guess I'm trying to determine if it will endure the confined, humid, very warm conditions in a fine seed starting mix in case it doesn't germinate within a few weeks. I don't think seed starting mix would be considered 'well drained'? Could it be a race between germination or rot in this case? What about any needs for sulphur to prevent any molds? A good idea, or not? Any and all responses extremely welcome. Remember, I'm denser than the seed. SueZ +More PS: Thank you Bjorn.
