What is seed stratification?? Many native seeds (and some non-native) require a period of time below a certain temperature in order to germinate. By providing this time period, you are stratifying your seeds. In this class, you will plant your native seeds into milk-jugs to create mini-greenhouses. You will store these jugs outside throughout the winter. In spring, after they germinate and establish roots, you can transplant them to larger pots or directly into the ground. **If you can, please bring ONE semi-translucent gallon jug, such as a milk, water, or tea jug, to the class. |
