Hey PG, you lucky gal. How wonderful. Some desert species germinate best with a period of after ripening, (drying for a few weeks/months) I've heard Sansevieria are fine with that. I would rather be safe than sorry, should it be planted too soon, with extra moisture, it may not fare well. For me, I would keep it warmish and dry for at least a month, then plant it in a well drained sterile. soil-less mixture, keeping it 70-80 degrees F. That's is what I would do.

Karen,
Any updates. How are you planning to grow this. Do you remember my cactus post. I planted some cactus seeds and was successful. I used a take home container. The one with the clear plastic top. It makes the perfect green house for starting seeds. Used a sandy moist (not wet) mix and keep the top almost on tight. Let some air leak in. Keep in a warm spot. Above the refrigerator. After one week, you should see what looks almost like a blade of grass growing from the seed.
Good luck and keep up informed.

Hi Guys,

So Michael, you're an Official Seed guy? That's pretty interesting.

Stush, I haven't done anything it yet, am letting it dry, maybe give it a wk or 2 given Michael's comments. Sorry, I don't recall your seedlings. I am a fan of the hinged deli containers if that's what you mean. Tho' I've also devised a variant of that, which I can make taller.

This is a Hoya seedling in one type I use

Next is a Thanksgiving cactus seedling in a triangular hinged container

Of course, one can't really see the containers 'cause I'm trying to show the plant, but thanks for the suggestions all the same. I think my mix here was long spaghnum chopped up & mixed w/ perlite.

I'm fortunate that I can actually give them some direct sun on my kitchen table rather than bottom heat. Above 2 plants are still going over 1 year now.

I'll update when I figure out what I'll do.

PG, Oh yea, that's me, the "official" seed guy. Botanist yes, but trained in seeds too. It's one big mishmash, a salad if you will, of greens. All very poor puns aside...

It's not easy being seedy.
