Are they difficult to sprout?

It was very quick to begin growth, but I had difficulty getting it past a young, mosslike stage.

I bought 6 packets of different herbs, all have sprouted except the dream herb, and it's been about two weeks

They sprouted fine, but they weren't dream herb, they were basil. I attempted to contact the seller for a refund and never received a response. Beware of seller!

Update: My husband soaked 10 of the seeds overnight and then placed them in between several layers of moist paper towel. 9 out of 10 have sprouted this morning and the 10th looks like it might also sprout, so he says 'YES' these seeds seem to be viable for sprouting and/or planting.

You can sprout them in a wet paper towel between two plates or use dirt plugs. Keep them moist at all times.

Most of these beans can't sprout. Maybe one out of 100 beans can do. So these beans are just for cooking.

Unfortunatly, no. The seeds are the size of a pin tip and impossible to work with.

yes of course sprouts will grow anywhere it will just take a couple days longer. for example in the sun it could take 1-3 days and without sun it will take 3-5 days.

No, unless you actually want to grow the sprouts into a plant. If you are just wanting to grow sprouts to eat then no sunlight is necessary.

Honestly, I think you would be much better off watching an instructional video on Youtube. That way you can see what the sprouts should look like. Here is a link to a 5 minute one but there are many more. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IL0URJcZF8w Just watch a few and you will be ready for success.

In theory, yes, but they take about 2 years to reach that level of maturity. They grow VERY slowly. I have other plants that have grown through vegetative and flowering phases (and been harvested) in the time that these have grown maybe an inch (though I have yet to add fertilizer in the 3 months I've had them). There are plenty of resources online that explain the care and growth cycle of these plants.

I have them and they have been slow growers. So I do not have the experience of blooms or fruits yet.

Mine literally took like 2 days tops to sprout, it does take awhile to get to the point where they make peppers though! Most peppers are pretty slow growing, my plants are currently about 4 inches tall and they've been growing for over a month now. I suspect another 2 or 3 months until i get peppers.

I don't know whether or not you can plant these now, but some of mine still sprouted last week since I planted them at May. For my opinion, they are pretty hardy. Maybe you can try to plant them if you live in a sunny and warm area.

Is not hard. Just get it out with minimum or no damage to the roots. Dig the holes make sure that the dirt within the hole is soft so the roots will have soft ground so they can start growing right away.

I have planted these in VA. I started them indoors and then moved them out after acclimatizing them. All of the seeds I planted have sprouted. I have them where they receive full morning and early afternoon sun. They get a little wilted by mid afternoon if it is very hot but recover by evening. They seem to be pretty hardy--my dog trampled two of them but they recovered quickly. They have been in the ground for about 2 weeks now and they all are really beginning to take off. I show multiple small fruit on all but they are very small yet. I am thinking they will do well.

I believe they would because if I leave them in the sprouter too long they form roots and leaves. I eat them as seedlings quite often.

I planted these seeds for my animals to eat. They sprouted and grew well. I guess you could blend them, but they are dry. I see somebody else replied that they came with mold on them. Mine were dry with no mold, but if theirs had mold, then I would say no way should you blend them. Yuck!

Not too difficult. I bought them and I am a small woman. Trimmed up the overgrown azaleas pretty well.
