Help Growing Plants From Seed?

I order plant seeds online from online nursery. I ordered the following plant seeds. Morning Glory, Hemp Agrimony, Passion Flower, Valerian, and Wormwood. After the seeds arrived I placed all the seeds in marked plastic bags. Except the Morning Glory Since they are almost considered invasive weeds; and grow very easily. A week later I checked the bags and all had seeds that sprouted. YEAH!!!. I placed these into soil and misted. They all Died!!!! They seemed to have just wilted to death. Well I discovered the humidity was the main factor. So I Got to thinking,. I took an old fish tank and sealed it up. Placed The Hemp agrimony sprouting "the onyne currently alive now" in the tank. Hooked up humidifier to tank and pumped some moisture in. I guess you can call it a terrarium. I was wondering if the wormwood, passion flower, and valerian would grow nicely or even germinate in this. It is a ice mini green house that has alot of moisture.????? Any advice on germinating these plants .

Putting them in the plastic bag was not a good thing to do.



First prepare your outdoor soil with slow release fertilizer. You can find this at any garden center or nursery. Follow the directions on the container. Water well.



Plant your seeds with just a little soil on top. Keep the soil moist until you see growth. You will still need to keep moist, but not as much.



When your plants have grown, keep a close watch on them and do not let them dry out. Keep them well watered in the hottest part of the summer.

Changing the subject.....you need to research each type of seed to see if they should be planted in sun or shade. Go to your search engine and type in How to grow morning glories.

Changing the subject again.....if you live in the USA, it is too late to plant a garden unless you live in southern California or middle to south Florida, or southern Texas. Next spring, wait till the soil is 68 to 70 degrees warm at night. Then you can plant your seeds and grow a garden.



Happy gardening to you.
Reply:Other than the morning glory seeds, which occasionally need scarification or soaking, I would simply put the seeds in soil, keep the soil moist, and allow them to sprout normally. All of the flowers/plants for which you got seed are nearly-wild flowers, and if you're having trouble getting them to sprout, I'd be suspicious that they might have gotten harmed by a herbicide somewhere down the line. I'd certainly contact the company from which you bought them and get a refund. You should avoid putting seeds in plastic bags in the future as well.
Reply:you reallyshould not have to go to that much trouble to plant seeds.

I simply put morning glory seeds or whatever in ground and they grew.Maybeyou should send the seeds back to the nursery as they might have been a bad batch and theycan refund you?
Reply:In my opinion, your first mistake was sealing the seeds into a plastic bag! Yes, they got warm and they created their own humidity, but they need AIR!

Read the instructions on the packaging that (should) come with the seeds. Miniature peat moss starter containers are best for most seeds, but you can start seeds in starter soil in an egg carton. Keep them moist, but not wet. Give them plenty of light, but don't place them in direct sunlight.

I've never heard of a "sealed" terrarium. All living things need water, light and air.
