Seeds won't germinate

I don't know how to answer this but I will try.

Using the method you are using also check this.

They need to be warm and dark. Not hot.

When I use the paper towel method I do this.

Get the towel wet and put the seeds between the layers with the towel laying in a saucer. Then I place something over the paper towel to block the light and slow evaporation. Place the whole thing in a warm place. Kitchen cabinet. Then wait 1 - 4 days. Sometimes longer but not often.

P.S.

Thanks bro, questin though. does the paper towel go in the water? or just like a corner of it. and im afrid my seeds might be ruined, because i put them in the intire water the 2nd time, cause the first corner thing did not work. i tryed this in a cabnet in my closet, which gets cold at night, so u think try under my bed?

Some people soak their seeds in water 24 hrs before they put them in dirt.

If the temp don't drop below 70d f they should be ok.

Keep the paper towel real moist or a little wet.

Warm and dark is the thing. It will be ok just wait ( The hard part )

so the fact that i let them be wet for 3 days is ok? sweet i love this palce. thx alf

They're probably still good if there was no mold on them. I think Moon Shadow is suggesting you wet the paper towels directly instead of dipping them in water. I use about 10 sprays from a spray bottle on each paper towel when I germ his way. Try germing the seeds in just lukewarm water(keep them in a thermos) if Moon Shadow's method doesn't work for you. Make sure the seeds are in a very dark place.

What if the seeds are gray or green? Is there any treatment that can sterilize bag seeds?
