- We discuss and show Hydrogen Peroxide and Perlite For Plants (Germination Benefits). What do seeds need to germinate? We explain the process of seed germination and how to get Better Germination for growing any seed flower, vegetable or tree. rumble.com/vdvu8z-seed-germin...
Step 1
Most seeds need to go through a cold period just as they would in nature. This process is called cold stratification. This will greatly improve germination results both in more seeds sprouting and faster germinated seeds
Step 2
Paper Towel Method to Seed Germination with a Zip lock bag or the Perlite in Baggie Method with a touch of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) with water mixture.
Step 3
We use the Perlite Baggie Method with Water and HP solution as the watering agent (Watch the Results!) Simply place your seeds inside the bag with a handful of perlite to cover the seeds.
Step 4
Mix together a bottle of water and a cap full of HP. You can use the cap on the Hydrogen Peroxide (Cleaning Solution Grade) 3% and pour into the bottle of water. A little goes a long way.
Step 5
Now shake the bottle of water solution and then wet the perlite in the baggie. Do not over saturate as the perlite will absorb the water. The key is not to have any standing water in the bag. You need just enough moisture to sprout the seeds into tiny seedlings.
Step 6
Place the baggie into a warm area. The baggie does not need a whole lot of light to begin germination. To help germination you should have these conditions correct because the process of germination depends on several environmental factors such as temperature, water potential, light and nutrients. Water and temperature are determinant factors for seed germination.
Step 7
Once the seeds begin to open and sprout this is called germination. You will then need to find them a light source within a warm climate.
Now you have found great success in growing those hard to germinate seeds that you may have paid a lot for!

I suggest wetting the perlite before putting it into the final germination bag. That way you avoid putting in too much water.
I just want to say thank you for demonstrating this method. I’m in college and I have been working with my own hybridizing of dayllies at home for fun. I always had trouble germinating seeds until a few months ago. This method has worked 90% of the time with almost 200 seeds!! Again, thank you for helping me start my Daylily farm!!! 🙏🏻
isn't it neat to learn something that helps you! I am thankful that you shared this with me. It took years of frustration and money! i would buy some really cool daylily crossed seeds and they would end up rotting out. Keep me posted on how your farm is working out. If i can help in any way let me know. That is my love, even though you may find many different videos on this channel... i still enjoy Daylilies the best!! Take care and have a good weekend Alexandra.
Thanks for your video. Suggestion: Do your seeds as you suggested. let them sprout and take pictures. When you have the pot planted take pictures. When you make your video show the process and then the pictures of the results. Much more effective!
I agree. Show the main steps. Show the results after 'X' days.

I feel like I need to reply to everyone, but trust me that this is one of the best methods there is because it lowers the chance of mold/fungus/rotting/drowning/sufficating from killing your seed sprout compared to using methods such as a cup of water or a paper towel which the root can also grow into the paper towel and removing it can break/stress the root tip.
+Jay H Great input Jay! Appreciate you.
There is beautiful rain sounds coming from roof. I miss my old place Carolina rains.
yes, sounds wonderful
I did it
I may have to give this a shot. All my cucumber seeds failed this year using the paper-towel method. All rotted before germinating. I like the idea of H.P. bit of a disinfectant that i didn't think of.
maxdecphoenix yeah! used the paper towel for years...dont get me wrong it works great on certain things but perlite easier on the roots
I used this method but with the paper towels and it took literally 24 hours for the seeds to sprout, I used melon seeds that I thought were dead, I got 100% germination.
Excellent!! Glad it worked for you.
Its germination how specific does he really need to be..
Just wanted to let you know I tried your method with a few seed varieties, and I'm encouraged! I've got a bunch of impatiens, a bunch of coleus, and hopefully, the petunias I did will survive. They look very fragile! Thanks so much, I feel "empowered" to plant anything now! lol
This is awesome. I have managed to germinate some seeds which had been failing me for many years.
+baladenmark Thanks for the feedback!
Instead of a water bottle. Try a spray bottle give you more control over watering the perlite.
love that idea, thanks for sharing
Thanks for the information and I will try that with some seeds I have.
Sidney Mathious great! let me know how it works out for you Sidney.
amazing..
In answer to putting seeds outdoors; we live in frozen state til June; we have to start seeds indoors or buy plants due to a short growing season. Not everybody lives in Oregon.
Excellent, thank you!
+Wristband Maker no problem!
thanks so much
I wrapped a couple of store bought string bean seeds into a wet paper towel put them in a baggie and they grew roots in no time at all, than I planted them into a pot for about 2 weeks, from there I planted them into the ground they grew just fine, no chemicals at all.
That is Awesome Dawn!!! Think I am going to try that...appreciate the feedback! Happy Gardening!!!
I've always gone with the saying: 'seeds need humidity and heat. Seedlings need moisture and light.'
maxdecphoenix gg
Thanks
a nother thing you can do is get a dyper yes a dyper and cut it open and shake out the power on paper then add some of that to it the powder is what absorbs water its a silica powder safe to use and this will help keep things wet and prevent from over watering it also helps speed up the process.
I already use a chamomile tea solution which has worked well for me in fast germination and getting old seeds to sprout. Do have the occasional issue with mold, though, so i think I will try adding a bit of peroxide to my chamomile tea solution. I also really like the perlite idea: you don't have to fuss with trying to wrestle roots from a paper towel. I also think I'll add a few water retention crystals to cut down on worry about too much or too little watering.
Thanks for the vid! Thumbs up & subbed.
Right! Thanks for sharing with the Community LL. Appreciate that.
+ First Class Gardens this my first time

cinnamon powder is a lot better than chamomille tea to keep the mold away.
great job guys...awesome tree
thanks!
Do you still have to put the seeds in a 3 month cooling period, or is it ready to go with the perlite?
You can colect rain water , it works as well , and its for free. At the end of the day , nature wil do its own selection.
Recommend using a...strainer--as per wetting the seed growing "medium"--as would allow itself being WELL DRAINED prior towards installation into the plastic bag, afterwards, right?
Neighbor gave me volunteer tomato plant. I put it in the crappiest soil I had, in a small pot (1 gallon) because no one believed it would grow and produce. I then kissed it, loved it, and talked with it every day. I caressed the branches and leaves (I barely had knowledge how to care for it).
It shot up like a weed, grew to 4 feet in no time and grew strong. It started blooming. No bees to pollinate. So I shook branches every day to self pollinate. It started producing fruit - 18 to be exact (15 that were medium size). It had many more blooms. Yet it was in small pot so I decided not to pollinate those. I caressed the tomatoes. My neighbors were in shock - I hardly know gardening, yet their store bought plants did not make.
The friend/neighbor who had given me volunteer plant, still had not any tomatoes from her plants. She gave me two more volunteers. However, my giant mother plant had a main branch Break off from storm. I kissed the bobo, taped up the tear and placed that large daughter branch into a tall thin glass vase, in kitchen window, where it could see it's mama. It was as tall as window and just as wide. My husband laughed. I kissed it, loved it and talked with it. It soon began to root like crazy. Other people said it could not be done. So I planted it in 5 gal pot with crappy soil (crawfish mound soil, rotted leaves, half-rotted bananas peals, etc.). I kissed it and loved it. Now all I will do is wait 💁🏼
Hi, after the seeds germinate and you are ready to transfer them into a seed tray, how many seeds will you put into one tray? One or multiple? Thank you.
Hi, Today is May 18, getting a late start with sunflower seeds due to late frost. I'm told to sow the seed directly, not transplant or germinate sunflowers. Can't I soak them overnight? It's getting late in the season.
I subscribe to your channel and had great results with all my other flowers, except I over watered my seedlings and lost some. Thanks for the great tips!
I went right downstairs to give this a try with some old delphinium seed, sanvitalia (creeping zinnias), and some mystery seed I snipped from outside a church. We'll see how it goes!
+MrRJS27 keep us posted!!
+First Class Gardens The mystery seed germinated fine and I've put them in soil. The others are still in bags but they're smaller seeds (and older in one case) and maybe not the best for this method.
Do you think this will work with bat plant seeds? I've heard that they are very difficult to germinate
Okay, got the tiny, two reddiesh start-of-something growing from seeds in bags on cotton. Help. What did you mean to say when you said "You don't want to transplant these.. at 4:00? If they are flowers, how long do you let the sprouts grow before you transplant them? Can they get stuck in the cotton and be difficult to transplant? How can you tell if the sprout is a root or a stem in order to choose downward or upward in the soil? Thank you.
What about seeds that need scarification in order to sprout? Can you skip this part with this method or do you still need to scarify?
After soaking cannas seeds in water for a couple of days, they produce white sprouts. Do I plant the seeds with the sprout down, up, or sideways?
good
does this work well for cold stratification in the fridge?
Some seeds need to be put in freezer like poppy . Perlite keeps it from getting too wet. Temp is most over looked aspect , look up germination temp for each seed you want to germinate
+pass your drug test *Great Advice*
Is it Perlite that is dangerous to breathe in rather dust as you use it? It’s similarly harmful as asbestos, I believe I was advised at a large gardening store. (Armstrong’s.)
I tried this with bird seed and did not grow any birds. Disliked
hahahha!
haha love it!
You have to try it again, Lol
It was probably baked seed that is done to prevent it growing. And people like you can grow whatever just know some bird seed varieties contain thistle seed. which is a noxious weed. And if it has sunflower seeds hope you love around 10 foot tall flowers. Cause many sunflower varieties can grow up to 10 foot tall
TSpider Keeper r/wooosh
This just gave me an idea. I was going to throw into recycling a bunch of those easter egg shells and was thinking, they might actually be handy if I put perlite into them and used them to germinate my seeds.
hi, can we use top soil wid mix of peat moss instead of perlite, many thx
how long do seed stay viable? Do you keep the seed?
Nice 👍🏼
Thanks 👍
People want to see them growing too, and most of the videos on youtube dont show this process :-(
noted, thank you
I'm curious if it has an effect on the seeds of CORDYLINE AUSTRALIS plants ... what do you think? All the best, from Romania! 🙋♀️🙋♀️
Is that work for white sage (salvia apiana )seed too? Thanks 😊😊
i sprout me seeds by putting cups of top top soil start about march (im in zone 7.5 south carolina small in the bottom to drain i have a rolling cart so i can take out side weather perm. for about 1 hr a day once you see little green coming up you know is working just put about 2 inchs soil to start as they star adding spoon fulls of soil do this till it reaches top of cup this way they dont get leggy and fall over 3-4 weeksthey start growing faster i can plant 1st week april this works for tom. every thing else i just place in soil keep damp and watch it grow (okra and several type beans cucks and zucinnie
excellent advice, thanks for sharing
Hi, would this method work with eastern redbuds?
Can this be done with huckleberries?
Great idea for elderberries 💯
i like that
Great for getting seeds to germinate, but I can't get them to survive after transplanting into small pots on the way to bigger pots
does this work for tiny seeds as well?
I have a big Garden and Im cooking the seeds and using the oil as medial oil and as mıx that in the soaps
wah g wah
Maher Sanaullah
So I've germinate my pot seed now i have planted my weed seed how long will it take to pop up
Hi I have a question, does this way of sowing also works with cactus seeds?
Thanks in advance for your replay
i have a form of cactus growing wild around my yard after about april you should be able to just plant in soil where you want it
Not all hydrogen peroxide bottles are the same. How much would you say that cap contains? About a teaspoon?
so you added to different weed seeds and crossed it?
hello will this work on Yoshino cherry blossom seeds?
Will this work for squash and watermelon too?
It would be helpful to know what strength the peroxide was
3%
should the bag be kept open to get its oxygen please reply
a damp paper towel works great too
never failed me once
is that working with orchids nano seeds ?
Would Vermiculite work also?
Someone should make a video on. How to boil water. This guy might learn something.
That was the longest 4 & a half minutes of my life *and* I’m not even stoned.
🤣😅😂
Hahahaha
What vollime peroxide do you use?
I have a question, it's probably not going to get answered but whatever. So I got these plants that we started growing in science and I took it home and I have no idea what to do with it. Should I just burry it in soil because it's already growing worried. Yeaaaaa
From where I will get Aglaonema plant's seeds? Please.🙏
Will this work for fuchsia / begonia seeds? Do I need to soak seeds first ? Other videos say leave seeds in the fridge? Confused as to which method to use, what about the paper towel method?
+Caroline Jamieson if your seeds have not gone through cold stratification (4 weeks in the fridge) then you will have to do that first. After that I would use the paper towel on both of those seeds with the hydrogen peroxide solution. The reason for paper towel is because the seeds are so small.
+First Class Gardens thanks for your reply, greatly appreciated
will this work for all sizes of seeds??
I don't notice blueberry seeds when I eat them. I have never bit into a blueberry and noticed seeds?
i know this question prob has already been asked, you paused in the video saying don't plant then it skipped, don't plant when? i'm trying this method with rose seeds
i fail to planet roses seeds 10 times , have you successful doing it ?!
I was thinking the samething not fully explaining everything.
Whare would I get the peroxide from and the perlite
It would be nice if you explain why you use hydrogen peroxide and showed the results in two or three weeks. I feel like your video was incomplete
Can i still use this water to water them as they get bigger
Have you use this technique to germinate false Indigo seeds
I do have a question for you. I have Lily SEEDS not bulbs that are EXTREMELY small. INSTEAD OF PERILITE can I use a paper towel instead? (i don't have a big enough pot for 500 seeds to randomly start sprouting so I'm hoping to see germination before planting). that being said also, can I use a seedling starter peat moss mixture with the same results?
yes and possibly. Yes to paper towel and No - possibly on the peat pots. Over the past 20 years peat pots have been known to cause rot on a lot of plants we grow. This is due to a constant wet setting with not enough drainage. Some things really like those conditions while others will rot out. Grasses and Annuals really like the peat. I always test a sample first...so take about 10 seeds to try first then when you know, dive all in. Just be cautious what can happen with the peat pots. If they are Daylily seeds Dont Use the Peat Pots, they will rot out.
+First Class Gardens okay great, thanks. tbh, I don't know what type of Lily they are since our greenhouses here have never heard of them. "blue heart lilies". blue isn't a natural color I guess so I'm literally the only one in my area whos called the greenhouses asking for info.
well happy gardening and let us know how they turn out!
what's wrong with putting it between layers of a moist paper towel? Same result only in two days instated of 4.
OnKei Wong certain things like daylilies like perlite, paper towel works great too! but its the solution which creates better germination percentage...especially on hard to germinate seeds
what is that white powder you put om the ziplog bag?
it called root on buy in any seed store
I have some very skinny baby plants, for example, Plumeria. For how long I will keep them in the bag? When it's time to transplant them in the pot? Thank you much!
+lilly kelln take them out of the bag when you have a green leaf or stem..probably a few days after germination
What is that bottle of water please? Just mineral water? Is there a substitute for hydrogen peroxide please?
can i take any flowers off of any plants and trees and do this?
+Neoklyptic AA I would say 99% yes. There are a few plants that you can only clone, where seeds aren't viable but yes to answer your question. thanks
inflate the bag before sealing allows the seedlings to stand upright up to 4 inches.
good point Ian, What do you think about this video? ruclips.net/video/_jQHYI4D5-8/видео.html
What does the hydrogen peroxide do ?
Great video. I have a hard time to get them to grow from seed may this can be a solution.. Thanks. Loved and Subbed
nery colon 1 thanks Nery! let us know if this helped!!!
@@mygardenchannel did it help?
Please explain the rationale for adding hydrogen peroxide to the water. Very important to explain WHY you do what you do.
scrolled back quite a ways and didn't find the answer.......do I need to put them in fridge for a few months first? I just got some fresh concord grapes from the farmers market I want to grow them, sooo sweet
that would guarantee them to grow. You can try a few without putting them through a cold period. For best results keep them in the fridge for a few weeks.
Thank you!
I have soursop seed, very difficult to germinate, also cactus seeds almost impossible to germinate. Please explain to us the job of the hydrogen peroxide.
+Gladys Foster The peroxide is to sterilize and keep mold from growing.
+Gladys Foster for "hard" seeds, i'd normally scarify ie scratch them against a rough surface first, then dump them in some potting soil or put them in a sandwich bag on a damp paper towel. works all the time
the hydrogen peroxide kills mold, fungus, that sort of thing.
Please tell me what's the big bag? M not native English
What size bottle of water?
I have some coffee beans that I've had a hard time with, I wonder if this method would work
My apologies if you already know this... but you're not using ROASTED coffee beans, are you? Those are dead. I'm not even sure that the green unroasted beans that some larger specialty shop use aren't already too processed. Coffee plants are notoriously finicky; hence the high prices for coffee.
DeanieWeeny F no they are not roasted. They are raw.
rzashida I'm trying start my coffee beans too (ordered from Baker Creek) and the stuff I'm reading online says that it takes several months for them to sprout, and that in less than 6 months they are no longer viable. So, tricky stuff. Keep them moist.
Bless your heart Joy Alba I think I may try patiences and I might buy the seeds from Bakers Creek. I love Bakers Creek. Thank you !!
I'm wishing now that I'd started with started plants. Gotta try again. :D lol
Do you keep watering it after the first day?
no, just leave the bag sealed...rarely do I water again.
Good morning sir &Thanks for your video. i want to do it. I want know for all seeds well do same method ?.
yes, and make sure you let us know how it worked for you! G *(ᵔᴥᵔ)*
+First Class Gardens great. to grow plants
It is much easier to put the seeds in a moist paper towel.
Gary Olivier i dont know Gary, you ever try to get roots out of a paper towel without damaging them? just sayin :)
If you check them every day the roots will not grow into the paper towel. If they do you tear the paper towel and plant it along with the paper towel.
Gary Olivier did you try this with the perlite?
April the giraffe
"Benefits of Hydrogen Peroxide" - Then proceeds not to explain those benefits.. LoL. Peroxide mix 1L water to 100ml 3% peroxide. It eliminates root rot on plants that have root problems, and cleans the seeds with bacterial mould that could be attached to the seeds. This is also great in spraying vegetables that are in close confinement such as microgreens to prevent mould while growing, and into harvest.
What is the advantage of doing your procedure, when seeds should typically germinate in 3-7 days in a normal perlite/moss environment...and unlike your process, the then sprouted seeds do not have to be repositioned into some soil medium...since they already are! I admit that I did this with orange tree seeds placed within a wet paper towel, in a zip lock in the window during winter, and now have moved the sprouted little seeds into starter soil into my green house. It does work, just not sure the advantage?
+Jon Canter short answer- increasing germination percentage and at a a faster rate. Not sure what kind of seeds you refer too as you make a general comment? 3-7 days for grass seed would be the norm but when you are talking daylily, bamboo, cherry...etc. and I can go on, 3-7 days is very unlikely. For a few years (about 15 years ago) we were paying 15.00 to 25.00 on avg. for 6/7 seeds of the newest daylily crosses, straight from the hybridizers...planting them directly into perlite/moss as you say, or even regular potting soil...would cause a lot of them to rot out. So after experimenting and doing a little research we gave this method a shot. By starting seeds this way it increased our germination percentages into the mid 90% range. Typically, lets talk daylily seeds, we get sprouts in 2-3 days by doing it this way. I understand your skepticism but as a world wide seed vendor and grower of many plants for 20 years now...this method has really helped us. Not saying it will work exactly the same with everything, we just wanted to share with everyone what works best for us. Really, this video was inspired from and for all the people who gave us negative feedback on sites like Amazon and Ebay, who couldn't get their seeds to grow. Perfectly viable seeds and many could not figure out how to grow them. This was the case on several varieties that we were selling. Thanks for the question! It really took me back and glad you asked. If you read down through the comments this has helped many people to sprout hard to grow seeds. I have an email address: firstclassgardens1@gmail.com where I get mail daily from people who have thanked us for this information. Just dont understand all the dislikes on Free information we provide with this video? Have a great night. -Rich
to be more articulate, I meant that it seems like the time to germinate in a zip lock, then having to delicately place the sprouting's in seed starter, is not any more economic or time saving than just going directly to seed trays. But, yes, it was worth it for my orange tree seeds, as an experiment on starting harder seeds. Thanks for your video.
+Jon Canter Thanks for the input! Have a great weekend Sir
can you tell me what is "Perlie" ? we dont get similar brand name here.
+Socal7 33 Thanks
Hi
if you so happen to get a polyembryony seed i saw a youtuber saying the taller of the two plants could be a clone of the parent and the smaller of the two is something else which i dont know what he means by that , would you then remove the smaller of the two plants when they mature or just keep the growing side by side ? your plant wisdom in greenthumbery is very much appreciated :)
+Tom Neal i would never recommend counting on any seed to be a clone...you are talking about polyembryony which is multiple offspring from a single fertilized egg or seed. You still will get twins or identical plants but still will be sharing genetics from both parents. They would not be clones of their parents but would be identical. This cab happen both in the plant world and animal world. Only way to get an exact clone in the plant world is to take a cell or cutting from the original plant. Hope this helps!
i live in the uk and am growing calamansi from seed so far ive had about 20+ germinate and have stems and about 5 of the 20 seem to have 2 stems per seed hopefully they will survive , at the moment im growing them with a garland light garden
+Tom Neal that sounds really cool. Sounds like you have some calamansi juice down the road!
First Class Gardens
down the road probably 3 years time if they survive :)
+Tom Neal good luck sir!
I would like to know whether this method will also work for watermelon seeds. Chris from Nigeria.
sure does, it works well..
Appreciate you chiming in from Nigeria!!! Thank you so much... good to talk to you sir!
