As Needed, Mist the Soil with the Spray Bottle to Keep it Evenly Moist during the Germination Period. Expect the Seeds to Germinate within 4-6 weeks and with some taking well over 1 or 2 months. Just check the seeds periodically as they may need to be removed and rinsed in a copper based fungicide and replanted in fresh soil if mold or fungus is present. Never too Wet, \u0026amp; Never too Dry. At this point, it may help to keep your thoughts on the prize: a new foxtail fern, complete with berries that you’ll be able to propagate again. While many other seeds sprout in a matter of days, as with any Exotic Plant or Tree seeds, these seeds could keep you waiting a month or longer. Much like most tree seeds we sell that have to be put through cold stratification anywhere from 30-120 days before planting, these exotics will require patience and care as well.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"background: white; vertical-align: baseline; margin: 0in 0in 15.0pt 0in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 16pt; font-family: Karla;\"\u003e\"Please Contact us First if you need Anything\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 16pt;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"vertical-align: baseline; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; word-spacing: 0px; margin: 0in 0in 15.0pt 0in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 16pt; font-family: Karla;\"\u003eGerminación de la cola de zorro:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 16pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"vertical-align: baseline; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; word-spacing: 0px; margin: 0in 0in 15.0pt 0in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Karla;\"\u003e1) Quite la capa dura de la semilla (un cortaúñas funciona muy bien para cortar algunos lugares poco profundos en la capa o frote con papel de lija para ayudar a que las semillas duras sean permeables).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"vertical-align: baseline; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; word-spacing: 0px; margin: 0in 0in 15.0pt 0in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Karla;\"\u003e2) Deje las semillas en remojo durante la noche en agua tibia.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"vertical-align: baseline; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; word-spacing: 0px; margin: 0in 0in 15.0pt 0in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Karla;\"\u003e3) Agregue la mezcla húmeda para iniciar la siembra a una bandeja para sembrar semillas hasta 3\/4 de pulgada desde la parte superior.

Según sea necesario, rocía el suelo con la botella rociadora para mantenerlo uniformemente húmedo durante el período de germinación. Espera que las semillas germinen en 4 a 6 semanas y algunas demoran más de 1 o 2 meses. Solo revisa las semillas periódicamente, ya que es posible que deban retirarse y enjuagarse con un fungicida a base de cobre y replantarse en tierra fresca si hay moho u hongos. Nunca demasiado Húmedo y nunca demasiado seco. En este punto, puede resultar útil pensar en el premio: un nuevo helecho cola de zorro, con bayas que podrá volver a propagar. Si bien muchas otras semillas brotan en cuestión de días, como ocurre con cualquier semilla de planta o árbol exótico, estas semillas pueden hacer que espere un mes o más. Al igual que la mayoría de las semillas de árboles que vendemos, que deben someterse a una estratificación en frío entre 30 y 120 días antes de plantarlas, estas plantas exóticas también requerirán paciencia y cuidado. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"vertical-align: baseline; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; word-spacing: 0px; margin: 0in 0in 15.0pt 0in;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 18pt; font-family: Karla;\"\u003e\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 16pt; font-family: Karla;\"\u003eComuníquese con nosotros primero si necesita algo\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 16.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; color: black;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seed Head Exotics","offers":[{"title":"5 SEEDS","offer_id":54118548668700,"sku":null,"price":8.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 SEEDS","offer_id":54118548701468,"sku":null,"price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 SEEDS","offer_id":54118548734236,"sku":null,"price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0924\/9931\/2924\/files\/newfoxtail7-topaz-upscale-2.2x-denoise-sharpen-sharpen-lighting.jpg?v=1778876308","url":"https:\/\/www.seedheadexotics.com\/products\/asparagus-foxtail-fern-seeds-asparagus-densiflorus-meyersii-rare-tropical-houseplant","provider":"Seed Head Exotics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
