The directions that came with the seeds said that they were already "cold stratified?" to soak them 24-48 hours in lukewarm water and that they should "swell". Well they haven't swollen. The directions also said something about using a file along one of the sides? Well if I do that, do I soak them another 24 hours. Will that help them swell? I assume they must be swollen before I can plant them? Any help would be greatly appreciated. __________________ Kathy Michigan, USA Zone 5

You need to get moisture through the seed coat to trigger germination. It would happen eventually in the ground, but might not be something you're willing to wait for.
