By the way, have you ever tried germinating the seeds with the help of
giberellic acid?


I can't even say it! I'll look that up and ask Ray where he keeps it. ;-)
Seriously, can you tell us what this is and what it does - sounds of
interest to everyone.


Gibberellic acid (URL:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibberellin) - note
spelling - is a plant hormone. But if you can say Michauxia
tchihatcheffii you shouldn't have trouble with gibberellic acid.


I don't even attempt the second bit of Michauxia as it makes me sneeze. Bit
like Molly The Witch!
