You will revive 25+ Fresh seeds from this year. Hold these seeds indoors until out side temps reach 59 degrees and plant them out side to germinate or start them inside early spring to transplant after frost is gone and outside temps are 59 or higher.
I get about a 70% germination by soaking the seeds in hot water for 24 hours before planting and using a heat mat in march to start seedlings for planting.
