Bake soil in the oven at 350 degrees F. for 30 minutes to ensure it is "completely sterile."3) Lightly cover with no more than 1/8" of "sterilized sand" Do not cover them completely as Agave seeds need light in order to germinate. Place in a window with filtered light, or use a grow lamp. 4) Use a heated propagator to keep the temperature at 80 degrees during the day. Turn it off at night for fluctuating temperatures as this mimics their natural conditions, and will greatly improve germination rates.5) Be sure soil is moist, not wet at all times, being sure to never let it dry out.6) Cover with plastic to help retain moisture & humidity, and using a spray bottle to lightly mist down the soil as needed. Just enough to keep it moist. Wet soil will rot the seeds, so only keep it slightly moist at all times. 7) Agave germination is erratic, so seeds will sprout at different times. Expect to see some sprouts within 14-21 days, but don't toss out any that don't sprout early, as they are still good, and just need a bit more time to sprout."If you Need Anything, Please Contact us First"
