A variant on that I have done is when you sneak carefully to the counter, and beat a watermelon seed to death with a flyswatter.
Matt Todd wrote:Looks like you're asking about lavender specifically. I grew about 3 dozen plants from seed last year with NO stratification! In my studying before, I found a lot of growers saying it was not necessary for lavender and indeed it was not for me.
I filled 6 pack cells with sterilized 1:1:1 Sand, perlite, coir soil mix. Sterilized because lavender seedlings are very mold sensitive. 70-80 degrees with light 16 hrs/day. They sprouted in about 7 days. Keep moist for about one month after sprouting (until roots are established). Pot up at 6 or more leaves.

Ok, maybe I'm a permie and I'm taking advantage of the warm weather to wash my flannel sheets.... :D And drying them on the cattle panel arch arbor that grows beans and squash...
Function stacking! Solar energy!! Artwork! That's it!!
or maybe it's just laundry.
:D

I'm nowhere near there, but I thank you for the offerI live in Maine, so while I appreciate the offer... I will probably try to find one a little closer to home.
Do you find that breed smart and trainable along with sociable?
Timothy Norton wrote:Great question Tristan,
My understanding (which I could be wrong, I'm new to learning about these onions as well) is that potato onions are a variation of multiplier onions. Potato onions have the ability to sometimes produce seed while also producing multiple bulbs.
Example of Multiplier Onions
1. Potato Onions (Yellow, Green Mountain)
2. Shallots
I consider Egyptian Walking Onions to be a top setting onion but I have heard arguments that they are multiplier onions in themselves. I think the term is loose enough that it catches a lot of things under it umbrella but can be used interchangeably with the official names depending on the context of the conversation.

I've sent out a call to someone who knows how to fix it. I don't know his time zone so it might be a while for him to see it.
Thanks for reporting it.
