Germination guide.


In all cases, seeds will only germinate in specific temperature ranges and will remain dormant until those conditions are met. These can be grouped into four categories (see individual listings for "Germination Code") with the first two needing at least 6-8 weeks of cold stratification (freeze/thawing) to stimulate germination and are best sown in fall just before the freezing nights begin. Germination begins once the temperatures start to rise back above freezing during the day on a regular basis in mid to late winter.

1.  FZ  32-45 F Freezing weather germinating, best sown in fall. Seeds germinate on warmer winter days over the winter.

2. CW  45-60 F Cold weather germinating, best sown in fall. Seeds germinate near the end of winter as the ground begins to thaw out and days start to warm up more.

3. WM  60-75F Cool to warm weather germinating. Seeds can also be sown in fall but the seedlings can be lost if it gets too cold during the winter, therefore late winter sowing is recommended.

4. HW  75+ F Warm to hot weather germinating. Best sown in late spring to early summer. These seeds need persistent heat to germinate.
