Soaking seed too long.

[George R Stilwell, Jr.]

Loren,

If you read your friend Norm's book, you'll see he finds extensive
soaking of
seed detrimental to their health - not quite as bad as smoking. Seven
days is
overkill of the first water. I don't believe Ellen ever said this should
be done.

A. triphyllum is so easy to germinate, I wonder what the object of your
experiment is?? In fact, I didn't record germination rates for it.

Since other Arisaema germinate quite differently from A. triphyllum, you
won't
be able to generalize from the experiment. But you will have fun I guess.
