Stratifying Chinese Elm Seeds

[KayaMooney]

I wanted to start some seeds since I'm young and I'll have a nice amount of stock from this 10-15 years down the road, I also like having lots of projects going. Anyways, I just wanted to make sure my stratification procedure checks out...

1. Soaked the seeds for 48h in luke warm water
2. Patted them to a damp state with a paper towel
3. Stuck them in between a moist coffee filter
4. Plastic bagged it up and stuck them in the crisper drawer of my fridge

that's what I have done at least...

edit: actually I have added a tiny bit of anti fungus and put in vermiculite.

I wanted to do vermiculite and perlite but I didn't have vermiculite and coffee filters were at hands reach. I heard spraying it with a water and hydrogen peroxide mixture can help as an anti fungus and getting rid of micro organisms.
