Default Seed germination

The message
from "middleton.walker" contains these words:

The following is in response to a previous posting.


Vaccinium macrocarpon (American Cranberry)....fresh seeds will
germinate but
with a very low germinating rate....a one month of cold stratification will
increase the rate but for max. germination give a three month cold
stratification.


Thanks - they should have enjoyed their nine months in the freezer then.

I take it 'stratification' means 'buried under a layer of compost'?
