Has anyone grown red huckleberry from seeds in here? Any recommendations for starting them properly? (pawb.social)

They grow natively, here, but not many native plant sellers seem to sell them, citing their difficulty in cultivating them.

I soaked 30 seeds for 24 hours, then planted them in a seed starter greenhouse with peat under a grow light.

Huh, I had no idea. Thanks for the heads up!

Is the dirt in those little grow pucks actual peat, or is it "peat" the same way "pencil lead" is actually just graphite?

If it says peat, it's probably peat. You should look into coconut coir.

Right on, thanks :)
