Does anyone have a good method for sprouting eastern red cedar seeds?

You might try what works good on apples. Put them in moist dirt/potting
soil in a small plastic bag and set it in the crisper drawer of your
refrigerator. Check in every 30 days for 4 months to see if they have
sprouted.

Failing in that, you might feed them to some chickens save the droppings and
plant them. Birds are the best planters of other types of cedar trees. You
see them coming up all along the fences in the South. With chickens, you
will have control over where they come up.

What about soaking the seeds in vinegar or sulfuric acid?

I found the following method for seed propagation at this link.

Don't know where to get sulfuric acid though. Would vinegar work?
