    I love lotus! That reminds me i have more seeds around here somewhere lol. They're so fun to sprout. My big thing was just making sure the waters clean. Some heat helps them grow too, but not expressly necessary

    Did you scarify the tips? Or crack the coating? Of just pop them in? The 2x a grew them i did the sandpaper scarification, but I saw someone crack the case with a hammer, and was intrigued

      Do you mean make a little tube of sandpaper and shake the seeds in them? I’ve done this for seeds I’ve grown before - thanks for the reminder.

      No, you actually rub these till you see white. Their outer casing is extremely hard. They will usually grow without scraification, but it takes forever. I was intrigued by the hammer cuz it was a few taps, vs losing an arm trying to sandpaper a bunch of seeds 😆 🤣

      Here's a picture from online to show you what I mean. It's a good size portion you sand off. I've also seen someone use wire cutters on them

      They came with the tips removed so I didn’t need to do anything but put them in the water.
