Pics of My 2022 Seed Viability Testing [View all]

Here are the instructions I used:

Basically you just put 10 seeds on a paper towel, put them in a plastic bag, label, and place them on a heat source. In this case I used a seed germination mat. In 7 days check to see if there are sprouts.

This is a good way to tell how much of a seed to plant and also to make sure you put down seed that is going to grow when springtime rolls around. I really dislike wasting space in a raised bed with seed that doesn't come up.
