Are they hard to germinate? I was really looking forward to strawberries in the coming year but my seeds haven't germinated at all.
They are in my plastic greenhouse sowed 2-3 weeks ago.

I grew strawbs from seed last year and I seem to remember that they took quite a while. I'd waited ages for them to germinate and in the meantime had decided to sow some in a lidded pot on some wet kitchen paper (like you do at primary school?) so I could actually see if anything was happening. In the end I had about 50 little plants! They were the alpine type. What type are yours?
:)

They are Sarian F1.
I think reading the packet again it been a bit cold I think i'll bring them in an see if anything happens then or i'll be most dissappointed. I'm always a little to eager to get growing.

I have planted a tray of alpine (misonette?) about 2 weeks ago and a few have started germinating. On the packet it said up to 30 days for germination. These are being kept indoors.
