Myrica/Bayberry seed saving?

In all my research I haven't been able to find any decent info on how to save seeds from the waxy fruits of Northern Bayberry or Bog Myrtle, both of which will make excellent useful perennials in a permaculture system in the Northeast. Anybody here have any experience with saving seeds from plants in this genus?

I bought some bayberry seed last fall, and have had them stratifying in my fridge all winter. Just today I was checking through the seeds there and researching what conditions they need to germinate.

When you gather the seed you have to remove the wax from the seed or else they won't germinate. Moist stratify the seed just above freezing for a couple of months then bring them out and plant at room temperature. I didn't find out how to remove the wax but I imagine hot water or alcohol would do the trick

most times its just a hot water bath (not boiling) for them to sit for 24 hrs and then stratification (cold)

Hellooo. I'm just wondering if anyone has had any luck in growing Goji berries in southern Ontario? if so.... please let me know

has anyone grown quinoa to seed in in southern eastern ontario? I would love to know

I think it may grow from cuttings. I found a lot by the side of the road that had rooted itself after being slashed and dropped to the ground. I've grabbed a few pieces and have them potted up. I'll keep you posted on whether it is successful or not.

Most of the time Myrica is just propagated by cuttings or division since they sucker like mad.
