Thanks David! Well, I did 'tests' with 1:1, 2:1, 1:2 peat:sand and a few with finely chopped sphagnum in each of the above. The D. harts all melted down so it was probably the transit shock.
I'm doing similar tests with germinating D. intermedia "Cuba" and the seeds on pure sphagnum have been up 3 days now and still no sign of any on the peat or peat:sand. I'm sure they will follow but it'll be interesting to see just how far behind.
