Pepper and tomato most frequently



I wish I had an answer for you. The sales pitch for these coated seeds

is that either the coating protects, and promotes the plants, which you

say it didn't, or it is supposed to make the seed more amenable to

automatic planting systems.



I get at least 2/3 germination from new seeds, often more. Empirically,

it seems that you do worse. I would ask the company what's going on, if

I had any interest in continuing this effort.



Sorry, I can't be more helpful.

These are replacement seeds for the first ones that didn't germinate Out of a whole package of pepper seeds I have 2 that sprouted. I am still waiting for the
second round of tomatoes. Go figure
