PARK SEED GERMINATION TEST

Germination test of 6 random seed packets resulting in 3 of them failing. Inspired by this Usenet post on rec.gardens regarding problems with Park Seeds not germinating


Park Seeds used: Viola Johnny Jump Up, one pack (100 seeds) per pot


Soils used: Schultz Potting Soil Plus, Schultz Seed Starter, Schultz Seed Aide Mulching Granules


Fertilizer Used: Algoflash All Purpose every third day


Is there something wrong with the seeds or is it my gardening skills?

YOU BE THE JUDGE


UPDATE

The violas below are 12 packets of Ferry-Morse Johnny Jump-Ups. The conditions are the same as with the pots. The ground was dug, and the same soils were spread down, including the mulching granules. It was then sectioned off into 12 "slices," with one packet per slice. Fertilization was also the same. Germination was near 100%.
