Not everyone wants to do it because it's going to take time. But you will avoid unnecessary disappointment and work with seeds from which nothing will come. It's simple. Take 10 to 20 seeds and put them on soaked cotton wool, pulp, or paper towel. Put the microtene or food film you pierced before. Put the whole thing in a sunny and warm place, like the windowsill. In a few days, you'll see how many seeds have sprouted. If it's 70%, it's fine and get in the sowing. At a 50% success rate, give a double dose of seeds. Lower germination is no longer worth it. Throw away the old seeds and buy new ones to grow.
