Every year I try to be loyal to semi-local seed companies. But I have had horrible results in germination. I asked my local nursery about this and all they said to do is change brands.

I have my best results from Lily-Miller and their partner company Ferry-Morse. Local companies like Ed Hume or Territorial have uneceptable germination rates, especially Ed Hume. I follow the direction to the letter. Does anybody have a solution?

Please and Thank you
