maybe i should correct something... i did not mean that thats how you are supposed to do it i was saying its a good way to do it. i've done it myself and found that mimicking nature is a good way. and i did NOT mean freeze them either. once they are dry and hardened off the plant i found that storing in a dry place with cool (and dark) atmosphere increased my germ. rate. however planting bout a month after i'm sure would be fine. in fact if mr. ganga can get a 95% germ rate then how he goes about drying seeds obviously works great. we must learn from people who has had more success than us.
