Soak the seeds in room temp water overnight w/a little baking soda. Filtered water is better.

Dip the seeds in rubbing alcohol for about a minute before sowing.

Sow in moist, soilless mix (peat moss, sand and vermiculite mix is best). Make a tent around the pot w/cling wrap or a clean ziploc gallon bag. KEEP INDOORS IN A WARM PLACE, but out of direct sunlight.

Check every day for moisture. If the soil is dry to the touch, add a little more water. Don't overdo it, though.
