i had few sabal minor seeds,that didnt move for one year(didnt germinate). at palm talk i saw somebody did this methode. cut part where the seeds should germinate. seed rises in 2 days in water. before it was in water for few days. and when i cut that part of the seed, it germinated in 2 days in water. every day I changed the water, temperature of the water was warm. this methode worked for me and second time, with brazoria seeds. if i didnt do that i dont think that would ever germinate. this might be good for other species that are very slow to germinate.

Cameron,
how long have you been waiting for Jubaea to pop?
Are they one of the seed types that go into a dormancy if they are dried?

I might as well keep going trying this technique, only less deep.
The germinating pots in the basement are basically dead.

Take some pics when you do yours Cameron please.
