Some seeds in this mix require cold stratification to ensure germination. See the growing notes below for details.
Some seeds in this mix require cold stratification to germinate. If you sow directly in place in the fall, stratification will occur naturally outdoors, and germination will occur in the spring.
For spring sowing, cold stratification will then be necessary before sowing.
Mix the contents of the bag with a moist substrate (vermiculite, seedling compost or sand) and place them in a plastic bag in the refrigerator for 60 to 90 days.
When it's time to sow your seeds, whether in the fall or the spring following stratification, add 2 to 3 liters of substrate (vermiculite, seed compost, or sand) and mix well. This extra volume will help you spread the seeds more evenly across the entire surface.
