Stratiffication

[Wesley]

I'm getting ready to stratify my sarr seed. What would the best medium be? Also, is vermaculite safe for my sarr seeds?

Never used vermaculite for sarrs.
I use a mix of peat moss, LFS, and sand.

Ok, thx for the help. *To himself lfs, peat, and sand... lfs, peat and sand... sand?!* Would perlite work too? I am outa sand.

2:1 peat perlite is what I, and a lot of other people, use.

Ok well, here is what I did I used a mixture of about 2:1 peat:LFS. Anyway, after I got the seeds on the soil I was taking it outside to spray it with fungicide, and when I reached out to open the door my hand caught the tray and dumped about 1/3 of the seed out! I was soooo ticked. Well I recovered about 1/8 of the lost seed and *sniffles "they never had a chance"* i vaccumed the rest of them up. Well, I just hope the rest of them make it.
