Have the common milkweed seeds been vernalized?

Earthcare Seeds have! All seeds requiring cold stratification are taken straight from cold storage, hand weighed and packed into glassine envelopes with planting instructions, are already stratified (vernalization), and ready to sow. Plant with Confidence!

Vernalization, more commonly referred to as cold stratification, requires obtaining the seed soon enough to subject them to this required method to germinate, which I did not. Therefore, I have had to save them for next year.

I can't answer this directly, but these are BIG plants with gorgeous, intensely orange big blooms. These are definitely not the dwarf marigolds that I was familiar with before.

Yes you can, and I am putting this link here for you. http://www.monarchwatch.org/milkweed/prop.htm

As far as I can tell these seeds are fine. We are currently using them and planted them last year as well. If you want to, you may want to check out publications like Mother Earth News to get more background on seed (companies). Through that magazine we have started using Southern Exposure Seed Exchange because of their reputation (and they are in NO way fully or partially owned by Monsatan, Syngenta, Cargill, etc)

I use oiled sunflower seed and it works great. For just plain millet - it might roll out, as the openings are fairly large and the seeds are pretty small. It should work for commercial mixed seed. It wouldn't work for nyjer (thistle)seed, as they are way too fine.

No. If you use nyjer seed, they are sterile and will not cause weeds to grow. There is sometimes a small pile of seed on the ground.

Yes, These are Heirloom Seeds . Easy Seeds to Germinate . Good soil and water help the growth process.

No there is not. Its is 100% uncooked/unroasted, unsalted seeds. They are shelled. I have recently even sprouted a small amount. They are good seeds.

Seeds were recently sown. Germination rate is quite good. If sown in full sun should get good results.

The seeds came in a standard seed packet...and the turnout of flowers wasn't good.Unsure if it was the seeds, or my lack of a green thumb :-)

I'm in WV, planted about 2-3 weeks ago, mine are about 6 -7 inches and every seed came up. Also seed from last years throw-away's came up. This is the only seed I have planted for 4 years now and have never had a dud. Am planning a second planting this weekend. They are crispy and tender, unlike any other except the Persian variety.

The label does not specifically say where the seeds are grown and processed, but they give the following websites: www.kevala.net and info@kevala.net Hope this helps you.

No, but I do reuse the humidity domes until the seeds germinate. If you have lost those you can use small ketchup or condiment cups from the local burger joiint.

I'm sorry, I can't really tell you for sure. You may want to direct these questions to the seller. I live in NC and planted them last year late in the season and they did beautifully. I will plant them earlier this year, once it gets warm, and am hoping last years plants will come back. Just make sure you have good soil and they get some sun. Mine were planted in partial sun but it was still a very bright area. Not gloomy shade. They do get seed pods on them when they are mature plants. Good luck!

Yes, they are perennial here in upstate NY. However, the rabbits like to eat them. We lost a couple to the rabbit family that live under our deck. Good luck

not sure but this is the second year from planting the seeds and the plants are beautiful and stay bunched together and have not spread all over the place. I have planted them under my fruit trees and near the pond and it has not gotten out of control like I was hoping but beautiful and the bees love it.
