250 Carantan Leek Seeds for Planting Non GMO Heirloom Seeds Instant Latch Fresh Garden Seed

Seeds are microscopically tiny. Need water soaking for a minimum of four hours, preferably eight. So after you find a sieve, they still come out of the soaking in a "clump." This meant purchasing appropriate tweezers to transfer them to the starter medium. Then there's the danger of damp off. In which case I prefer to plant any seed straight into the ground. Tweezers were necessary to avoid contamination from my fingers. There is nothing wrong with these seeds, I just did not do my homework and did not realize how much work leek seeds are until I spoke with a master gardener. Not sure I'll try them again.

good seeds should have a germination rate of 80% or better, the germination rate for these in optimum conditions is 20% or less.

I wonder if my seeds were too old - nothing ever grew. Very disappointed.
