>>1490476>>1490501I've done everything from heating them with a light to putting them in a plastic bag and into the oven where the gas pilot light kept temps at 100F/38C. They usually germinate very quickly. Now I use seedling tray heat mats and domes. Good luck!
>>1490477>ephedra sinicaThat's a very interesting plant. Kind of like horsetail/puzzlegrass only with fruit. I've never seen it before.
>cold hardy bambooI know someone who had some at his old house. I was going to dig up some for myself. That cultivar is highly invasive and I never got a place setup before he sold the property. The new owner bulldozed them out, despite them never escaping their concrete prison. I use them for tomato stakes and simple scaffolding structures in the garden. I wish I had more.
>cold hardy eucalyptusNo clue about it.
>>1490485I clean up everything and keep the compost bucket screened. Then I set out a mason jar with paper funnel with an inch of water in the bottom mixed with a bit of sugar and bread yeast. The water has a tiny tiny drop of soap in it to break the surface tension. The venting gases attract the gnats like mad. Beer also works well. Wine less so and vinegar a bit less.Just don't put too much sugar and yeast in or it will foam up and prevent the flies/gnats from drowning (like in this webm.)
>>1490845That's pretty awesome anon.
>>1490863Try it on stone or brick/block. Try to identify the general species of it. You may need a different type and source it from a location similar to the one you are trying to grow it on/in. Check out how moss is cared for using bonsai methods,
