The Baggie Method

I'm trying the Dustin Eastman germinate-in-a-baggie method. I'm not sure this is any easier than starting the seeds in starter mix. Ok, let me restate that, I'm sure it's not easier. We'll see if the extra effort is rewarded with a higher germination rate. My germination rate has been crazy low this year.

I started 16 seeds Monday night, and this is the first one to grow a tail, 3 days later. No amateur hour here - I'm using coffee filters instead of paper towels, they're incubating in a temperature controlled mini greenhouse, and I'm checking them daily for signs of life.
