DirtyC... It's supposed to work. ES said so. And ES, I did soak for about five days. And it's been in a closed container with a bit of moist sphag since.

I think it's time to get the seedling mat out!

and I obviously didn't pay proper attention to the instructions from ES as mine has been in water all along!

I'm gonna leave it there now and hope it does as per DC's report of one growing in a floating pallet!

🤞

Anyone got a pet 'southern pig-tailed macaque'?

the bucket in the background is a 8.5 gallon chlorine tablet bucket, maybe 2.5' tall.

the sprout is maybe 3.5' these are the immature sprout leave (probably have a real name) and the first leaves that will spread and palm out like the mature ones just emerging
