I acquired Siberian Peashrub seeds and would like to make sure I did it right. I soaked the seeds in water for 30 hours and then placed it on top of potting soil which I mixed with a bit of sand. I then covered the seeds with thin layer of sand. Im watering from underneath. The pot is placed into a dish filled with water so the soil can such it as much it needs. The pot is inddor beside a window. Temp in that room is around 12 degress Celsius.
I started keeping bees in top bar hives and would love to give them this nectar giving shrub.
Any suggestions? If so far is done correctly how do I proceed if it starts growing?
Thank you

Much better to do this: sown the seeds in pots outside, in freezing weather, and let it be for about 1 month or even 2 months. Because these seeds in nature need cold stratification.
Diversified Food forest maker . Fill every niche and you'll have less weeds (the weeds are the crop too). Fruit, greens, wild harvest, and nuts as staple. Food processing and preservation are key to self self-sufficiency. Never eat a plant without posetive identification and/or consulting an expert.
