A little more clarity.
Do Dessert Grape Vine seeds need cold stratification?
Yes — Dessert Grape Vine seeds are raw and untreated, so they need a cold, moist rest to break dormancy. Mix them into the damp soil, cover with the lid, and chill the planter in the refrigerator for several weeks, then move it somewhere warm and bright.
How long do Dessert Grape Vine seeds take to germinate?
Dessert Grape Vine seeds typically sprout in 14-30 days at 65-75F when kept warm and evenly moist. Your guide lists the ideal conditions.
