Re: persimmons
I germinated about 12 of them last year. we stratified them by keeping them in the refridgerator for the winter, then in the spring planted them. For 2 weeks, not a single one sprouted. so we tried scarifying them a little and put little cracks in the shell with a pair of pliars. within days all of them had sprouted. Have about 31 right now i'm in process of getting to grow.
