I wanted to try to grow JM from seeds just for fun. I purchased the seeds from an ebay seller, and followed the provided instructions. To my disappointment, when a month later I took the bags from the fridge to check it, I discovered that all seeds were covered in a white substance - mold. The fist thought was "OK, I lost 10 bucks, lets throw them to the garbade.." But then I though "what if...". I opened zippered bags, put them back to the fridge, and forgot about them. It was month and a half ago. A week ago I checked the bags again. O my God! There were SOOOO.. many sprouted seeds! I planted those seeds and they are now about 0.5 - 1 inch. And I have even more sprouted seeds in bags now. So, never discard any molded seeds - you never know! Just want to add that I didn't use any fungicide, as was recommended on this forum, and I used potting soil for African Violets! :)

Was I just lucky?
