Hi lisham...

Actually i have keep my seeds for 3 to 4 month now still doing fine and they does germinate in 3 days after bleach treatment... this time i get 100% germination... to avoid fungus growth try using 2 part peat 1 part sand mix and top up a thin layer of sand on top... they does still germinate well for me... i'll post some picture soon....

Regards Jonathan

Hi Lisham..

Here is the pic i promised. sorry about the quality because i use my phone camera...

These are 2 weeks 1 day old byblis seeding... i use 2:1 peat/sand and add a thin top layer of sand so it dun look so ugly... i get 100% germination in 3-4 days...

Jonathan,
You sow the seeds on top of the sand? And the container is sealed or unsealed? How do you water?

Hi Cindy...

Yes... i use 2:1 peat/sand and add up a thin layer of sand on top of it... no cover and use water tray method... but must make sure the media is moist at all time... put it under diffused sunlight not direct because the sand will get really hot... it will germinate in 3-4 days after bleach treatment..
