using distilled water. Surface sow seeds. Propagate 
with a propagator set or inside a zip lock bag with 2 
inches of distilled water in the bottom. Place in fridge 
to stratify for 4-6 weeks (to speed up germination 
but not a necessary step). After this or instead
of this, place under lights or in a light position, 
expect germination in 4-6 weeks from this point. Always 
use distilled/rain water when watering these plants.
