MalumProhibitum Paper towel again!
I'm really looking forward to this project, as this plant is novel and still exciting to propagate.
3 days - Nothing yet..
Day #4 - One of the seeds has barely opened up and a tiny white tap-root is peeking out. I quickly closed the lid to preserve the high RH% in the box to not fck up the seedling 5% germinated.
Day #6 - another 4 seeds has germinated and are still in the LAB vessel for another day or 2 before being re-located :: 25% germinated.
As the seeds into soil project went so well, I kind of regret starting this one! xD
Since Brugmansia Versicolor / Angel's Trumpets hasn't happened I transplanted the 5 seedlings to this pot, maybe the Brugmansia germinates once they get some competition! xD

MalumProhibitum 5x seedlings transplanted, just hasn't broken the soil yet..
2 more seedlings germinated, moved them to the first pot where only 2 seeds out of 5 had sprouted and marked them with some egg-shells etc..
Adding all the projects together I now have 15 germinated seeds out of 40, netting me a germination rate of 37,5%.
👍😁👌 --All good!.

MalumProhibitum 7 germinated, 13 still in the paper-towel vessel, still no sign of life, so calling it; 1 month is enough..
As always I'll discard the inactive seeds in a spot in one of the older pots, giving them a 2:nd chanse to germinate.

MalumProhibitum Things seems to stabilize and any interventions are less frequent and the project is turning into regular routines.
Watching the other 2 pots gives me hope as I watch them and see the future of theese small needles; knowing they are about to take off in 2-3 weeks. In one month they will be a lot taller and have a so much more mass and off-branching! As they pass the first month of growing they are quickly becoming a lot less fragile than they are, espec during the initial week.
Yet again I find myself back on the look for new grow-projects! --preferably stealthy plants that are exciting, yet stays off the radar from: --room-mates, neighbours & Others ;)
