« Thread Started on May 1, 2007, 4:15pm »http://s3.images.proboards.com/buttons/modify.gif http://s3.images.proboards.com/buttons/delete.gif Hieeeee.... http://s3.images.proboards.com/grin.gif A few of the seeds I got from TS has germinated. Small tiny leaves are starting to grow out of the seeds. This is fast, only about 1 week plus.

How about the rest of you?

« Reply #6 on May 3, 2007, 1:25pm »http://s3.images.proboards.com/buttons/modify.gif http://s3.images.proboards.com/buttons/delete.gif Its better to chop sphagnum moss before using them for germinating seeds. Long moss fibers tend to make trouble when you move seedlings to individual pots, because when you pick a seedling up together with its surrounding moss, the moss fiber will bother the roots of other seedlings too. Thats somewhat irritating for me http://s3.images.proboards.com/angry.gif

Once the seeds germinate they hate direct sunlight <= this is problem
It should be bright shade instead of deep shade.

They will usually sprout after 3 weeks or so. You'll see a green strip appearing from the side of the seed. It'll look like green thin tiny weeds at first. So don't pluck them and throw away. « Last Edit: May 3, 2007, 9:38pm by David »Link to Post - Back to Top http://s3.images.proboards.com/ip.gif LoggedMy Wantlist Robert

Sure Rajah, will let you know when I have some more.

I think those fat (swollen) seeds you guys mentioned should germinate in a few days time. Wish you guys luck.

What Robert said is true, it's a joy looking at the plant growing from seeds to maturity, and satisfaction too.

I tried 2 methods, one outdoor in balcony, one indoor inside my high humidity tank, the indoor tank a lot of successful germination. Outdoor germination is slower because of the low humidity. These nep seeds likes himidity.

How is the growth of your baby amps from this batch of seeds?

Thanks so much... sounds like we are the 3 Ts and may be more Ts? Best of all, we are all located in KL. Can go Yum Chai and chat Nep quite easily!
I went to my very first Nep nursery today. What an eye opener!

Now I have gracilis and spectabilis in a covered clear plastic aquarium placed in my balcony. It's been there for a couple weeks now but don't see anything growing yet.
Anyone else had success germinating the spectabilis seed?

Looks like my lil' dark red spots are doing well. Few of the plantlets are slightly under 2cm in diameter.

Rgds,
Isaac
