Start from Seeds

Hi guys, very new with plants. I happen to get some seeds of a VFT plant and would like to know how about going to germinate them?

• Cotton wool + water (like those days when germinating green beans)
• Just leave the seeds on soil and water them regulary?

Btw, the seeds are in my fridge (lowest compartment, with veges) which I was told to put inside if not planting it yet. It is to keep it dry and cool. Is it ok?

How much water is required? Duration of the germination process? Any other information i need to take note of?
I hope i am not over-whelmed

Never geminated dionaea seeds before but I know this....they take an extremely long time to germinate and mature.

it would seem more challenging and satisfaction comes when u see it grow daily.

It doesn't take too long to germinate. From the day of sowing, germination should happen 2 weeks later. By end of the 3rd week, more than 90% should have germinated if the seeds are good.

Enjoy growing!

1) in pure water.
2) pot of soil, in jar with water.
