Pomegranate Germination:

1) Seeds should be planted in loose seed starting mix, covering with a light 1/2 inch of soil.

2) Keep the soil "moist", Not wet as it will rot the seeds. Using a spray bottle to mist them until moist is optimal.

3) Seeds will germinate at normal room temperature between 30-40 days, but using a heated propagator mat at 80 degrees can cut that time in half.

4) Seeds Must be kept under a Bright Light, or in the direct sunlight until they germinate.

Germinación de la granada:

1) Las semillas deben plantarse en una mezcla suelta para semillas, cubriéndolas con 1/2 pulgada de tierra liviana.

2) Mantenga la tierra "húmeda", no mojada, ya que pudrirá las semillas. Lo óptimo es usar un rociador para rociarlas hasta que estén húmedas.

3) Las semillas germinarán a temperatura ambiente normal entre 30 y 40 días, pero usar una estera de propagación calentada a 80 grados puede reducir ese tiempo a la mitad.

4) Las semillas deben mantenerse bajo una luz brillante o bajo la luz solar directa hasta que germinen.
