@ziamoon.bsky.social I am attempting to grow colored hostas from seeds. I planted them weeks ago and have kept them from drying out. I haven't seen any signs of germination. Any advice?

Hey 👋
Make sure
-seeds aren’t planted very deep (1/4”)
-the tray is draining
-opinions are divided on the need for stratification of seeds before planting
-they germinate slowly 7-20ish days
-have a low rate of germination
Thank you for the fast response! I live in Minnesota, so hostas grow well here. Unfortunately the gardening centers only sell green, dark green, and green/white varieties. I bought seeds for purple, blue, and red ones. I will send pics when they sprout.
