Cold Stratification Made Simple (Stop Wasting Seeds!)

If your seeds never seem to sprout consistently, they might just be missing their "winter nap." In this video, I show you the easiest way to cold stratify seeds using just a paper towel and your refrigerator!

This simple trick mimics nature's winter conditions, breaking seed dormancy and guaranteeing better germination rates for your native plants, wildflowers, and perennials.

This NEW method keeps your seeds separated into individual packets of manageable numbers. Come spring, your sowing work is half done for you!
