Starter Soil To Germinate Fruit Seed (Kiwi and Blueberry)
Comments (2)what kind of kiwi are you germinating?if they are kolomikta or arguta I simply spread the seeds over a damp piece of paper towel and into zip lock baggie.You need to refrigerate for several months,then around Feb/March bring them out during the day then put them back in the fridge for the night.Do this for a few weeks until you start to see them sprout,then simply pick them up with tweezers and plant in peat pellet starter trays.I will be doing some kiwi seeds very soon.If cold hardy kiwi is what you are doing, I can post pics of the progress.

Comments (7)Whenever I plant miracle fruit seeds I just leave them alone for a few weeks and they germinate. One week usually isnt enough time for those seeds to sprout. If you would of just left them alone they probably would of sprouted if the seeds were viable. The viability isnt that long though so you do not know how long the ebay seller had those seeds before they were sold to you. I am not sure if adding that elemental sulfur would of hurt the seeds but it was not necessary. That sulfur will not aid with the germination....See MoreHelp with Tomato Seed Germination Dates
Comments (3)It honestly isn't as complicated as you make it because most of the issues you raise are growing condition issues like weather and none of us have any real control over them. We can modify them somewhat with things like providing shade to prevent sun scald and reduce temps or erect windbreaks etc. but the rest is just the normal risks of gardening and while we can anticipate them we can't control them. Some years gardening is good, some years it is bad. You just start your seeds 6-8 weeks before your plant out date which for your fall season, according to the knowledgeable posters on the Florida forum, is late Sept. to early Oct. The plants are done and pulled and replaced with the spring plants in February, weather permitting. DTM is just a very lose guesstimate and of little practical use, especially in the southern zones, so ignored for the most part. Ask Tom and some of the other regular posters on the Florida forum for details on how they compensate for bad year growing conditions. Hope this helps.
